First published in 1954, The Home Office presents a comprehensive overview of the structure and functions of the Home Office of the Government of the United Kingdom. Sir Frank Newsam describes the principles which underlie the part played by the Home Office in the preservation of order and the maintenance of civil liberty. The book provides an account of the balanced relationships which exist between the Home Office and the local authorities in administering the various services.

It discusses themes like the Home Secretary and his functions; the business of the Home Office; public well-being and public safety; the royal prerogative of mercy; nationality and naturalization; administration of justice; and the international work of the Home Office. This is a must read for students of British politics and public administration.

Industry Reviews

"The present volume, written by Sir Frank Newsam, permanent under-secretary of state for the Home Department, is of a quality to give promise of high value for the entire series. It not only describes the extensive functions allocated to this department, and the organizational means used to effect them, but discusses their consequences within the framework of the whole governmental process. The result is no dull cataloguing of offices and legal authorizations, but a lively and readable treatment of an administrative organ in action, its problems, achievements, and difficulties."

-Political Research Quarterly, No. 8-2, June 1955
