Answer to Question 1

Skilled thieves typically worked in the larger cities, such as London and Paris. This group included pickpockets, forgers, and counterfeiters, who operated freely. They congregated in fl ash housespublic meeting places, often taverns, that served as headquarters for gangs. Here, deals were made, crimes were plotted, and the sale of stolen goods was negotiated. Smugglers were the second group of thieves. They moved freely in sparsely populated areas and transported goods, such as spirits, gems, gold, and spices, without bothering to pay tax or duty. Poachers, the third type of thief, typically lived in the country and supplemented their diet and income with game that belonged to a landlord.
