Items related to Uncommon Law: Being Sixty-six Misleading Cases
Albert Haddock, a man of remarkable intellect, exceptional skills of oration and a most exacting mind, first appeared in A P Herbert's column in Punch in the 1920s. Since then Haddock has gone on to do battle in countless lawsuits, each seemingly more bizarre than the former. Uncommon Law is a collection of his finest, most peculiar, most comical cases and includes such unlikely trials as 'What is a Motor-Car?', 'The Negotiable Cow' and 'Is Laughter Illegal?'. Amidst the laughter and incredulity, A P Herbert takes a fair few sideswipes at the absurdities of the English law.
