Synopsis

""The Still Life of the Middle Temple: With Some of Its Table Talk Preceded by Fifty Years' Reminiscences"" is a book written by W.G. Thorpe. This book is a collection of anecdotes and stories about the Middle Temple, one of the four Inns of Court in London where barristers are trained. Thorpe, who was a member of the Middle Temple for over fifty years, shares his experiences and memories of life in the Inn. The book includes accounts of the daily routines, customs, and traditions of the Middle Temple, as well as stories about some of the famous barristers who have passed through its halls. The author also includes a section on the ""Table Talk"" of the Middle Temple, which refers to the conversations and debates that took place during meals in the Inn's dining hall. This book provides a fascinating insight into the history and culture of one of London's oldest and most prestigious legal institutions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
