Overview
Things as They Are; or The Adventures of Caleb Williams (often abbreviated to Caleb Williams) (1794) is a three volume novel written as a call to end the abuse of power by a tyrannical government. Intended as a popularization of the ideas presented in the 1793 treatise Political Justice. Caleb Williams shows how legal and other institutions can and do destroy individuals, even when the people the justice system touches are innocent of any crime. This reality, is therefore a description of "things as they are."
