A Constitutional Argument Against Imprisonment for Debt Farley, Edward.

Written at a time when many were beginning to call for reforms to the criminal justice system in Britain, this work presents a constitutional argument against the "great national evil" of imprisonment for debt, citing Magna Carta, Coke, Britton and Glanville, among others. It also criticizes the role of lawyers in this injustice, "who have done more harm to this country than the plague, the pestilence, or the sword of tyrants." A second edition was published in 1795.
