Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a compelling analysis of celebrated British lawyer Thomas Erskine and his contributions to jurisprudence. Erskine's freethinking spirit challenged the unwritten laws and norms that characterized the British justice system of the 18th century, thus paving the way for modern legal principles and systems. The author examines several of Erskine's most pivotal courtroom battles, such as when he boldly defended the rights of the press, challenged the authority of the crown, and championed the cause of civil liberties. Erskine's arguments in court laid the foundation for many of the freedoms we take for granted today. This book provides a valuable study of a legal titan who helped shape the landscape of justice, making it essential reading for students of law, history, and anyone interested in the tireless pursuit of a more just and humane world.
