Landmarks in the Law
Lord Denning
Lord Denning tells of 'some of those great cases...of which students of history and of law ought to know much but of which they know little or nothing. They are cases, too, which are full of interest for others. They portray dramatic situations.
Written in Lord Denning's familiar vivid, staccato style, Landmarks in the Law discusses cases and characters whose names will be known to all readers, grouped together under headings such as High Treason, Freedom of the Press, and Murder. Thus, for example, the chapter on High Treason tells the stories of Sir Walter Raleigh, Sir Roger Casement, and William Joyce - three very different cases, the first occurring nearly 350 years before the last, but each one raising constitutional issues of the greatest importance.
