(tipped-on color plates) An illustrated directory of prominent British judges and lawyers of the time, with each color plate accompanied by a one- or two-page biography. It starts at the top, with The Right Honourable Lord High Chancellor and The Right Honourable Lord Chief Justice of England, and proceeds through seventeen additional Right Honourables, fifteen mere Honourables, and an assortment of other characters such as The Recorder of London and His Honour Judge Francis Bacon -- and even a couple of guys who are apparently not Honourable at all.

A sample comment: "He is a quiet, kindly, considerate gentleman, wholly free from conceit, in whose keeping the wholesome traditions of the English Bench for good sense in civil matters and for humanity in criminal are quite safe." ("Humanity in criminal"? Perhaps a Freudian typo?) ***NOTE: Additional shipping charges for this heavy book may apply for non-U.S. customers, or for Priority Mail shipping within the U.S.; if this causes you concern, please inquire before placing your order.***.
