Comprehensive reference to Alabama’s criminal law code from 1907
This three‑volume edition compiles the state’s adopted criminal statutes, prepared under the Code Commissioner's guidance, and includes notes, cross‑references, and historical context.
This volume presents the criminal portions of the Alabama Code as enacted by the 1907 legislature. It includes explanatory remarks, prefatory matter, and an appendix with tables comparing sections to prior codes, plus a detailed table of contents that covers topics from abduction and abortion to arrests, arson, and offenses against public order. The work reflects how the law was codified and annotated at the time, with special notes about amendments and extraordinary legislative sessions.
- An organized catalog of criminal statutes by chapter, with practical references for researchers and legal professionals.
- Annnotations and marginal references that illuminate the origin and evolution of the laws.
- Appendix materials, including cross‑walks to the Code of 1896 and notes on the Code Ethics.
- Historical context about the extraordinary legislative session and how it affected codification.
Ideal for students of legal history, librarians, attorneys, and researchers needing a solid primary source on early 20th‑century Alabama criminal law.
