Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some very slight edge wear and chipping to top and bottom of jacket and spine, very slight yellowing to extremities, not price clipped (35s), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy for its age. 175pp. Judge Gerald Sparrow (1903-c.1980), was a slightly eccentric British barrister who served as a judge in Bangkok in the International Court for two decades. One of the less acceptable causes he championed was that of polygamy for men. Polygamy, he wrote was a solution for the problem of the numerical inequality in the sexes. He declared 'Unless we come to it, thousands of women who now have to lead unwomanly lives will remain unhappy. At present we have about a million women in Britain who cannot have husbands (this was just after the war). It is a tragedy. Many of these women suffer terribly from frustration.' Mr. Sparrow himself decided to settle for only one wife, a Siamese lady whom he married secretly. In 1974 during a visit to South Africa Judge Sparrow became involved in a protest against the sporting isolation of South African teams. He wrote a long series of entertaining 'true crime' books, this one includes accounts of notorious libel cases involving the Prince of Wales, Marie Stopes, Winston Churchill, Horatio Bottomley, Oscar Wilde and Aleister Crowley.
