A Breaker of Laws is a novel written by William Pett Ridge and originally published in 1900. The story is set in London and follows the life of a young man named Mark Ruthine, who is determined to succeed in life despite his humble beginnings. Ruthine is a clerk in a solicitor's office, but he dreams of becoming a wealthy businessman. He is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, even if it means breaking the law. As Ruthine climbs the social ladder, he becomes involved in a number of shady dealings, including fraud and embezzlement. He is constantly aware of the risks involved, but he is driven by his desire for success and wealth. However, his actions eventually catch up with him, and he is forced to face the consequences of his illegal activities. Through Ruthine's story, Ridge explores themes of ambition, morality, and the consequences of breaking the law. The novel offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and economic realities of turn-of-the-century London, and it remains a compelling read for anyone interested in the history of crime and punishment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
