Item description from seller

Hardback. First Edition. Tiny tear to top edge of front inside cover. Pen mark to top edge of front inside cover. Slight mark to front inside cover. Mark to edge and edge of back inside cover. Slightly sunned spine to D/J. This book will always be one of the most vivid and fascinating accounts of English life in all our documentary literature. Tales of murder, treason, bigamy, adultery, political conspiracey conquest are told through the worlds of the great and the humble. Murderers, pornographers, conquerors and heroes, all come alive in their own words. More remarkable, those men and women who could never have written a word for themselves - the peasants on a great Irish estate in the eighteenth century, the newly-conquered inhabitants of Trinidad - have recorded their lives here in pictures which, as Leslie Stephen commented, are as fresh as if they were taken yesterday. The full editition of State trials was completed in 1826, but it still remans a vital source for both historians and lawyers. This, the second volume in the present series, contains cases concerned with witchcraft, the scandals of the prisons, and colonial administration. 247 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
