The Lost Population: Status Offenders in America

by Robert Hartmann McNamara

"A status offense is one that can only be committed by a youth. Examples include running away, truancy, incorrigibility, curfew violations, underage drinking and smoking. This book, the first of its kind, explores the many faces of status offending and its impact on the treatment of juveniles."--BOOK JACKET.
