Omschrijving

An Essay on the Trial by Jury is a book written by Lysander Spooner, first published in 1852. The book is a critique of the jury system in the United States and argues that juries should have the power to nullify unjust laws. Spooner argues that the jury system has been corrupted by the government and that jurors are often coerced or manipulated into rendering verdicts that are not based on the evidence presented in court. He also argues that the right to a trial by jury is a fundamental right that should not be taken away by the government. The book is a seminal work in the history of the American legal system and has influenced many legal scholars and activists. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the American legal system or the role of juries in modern society.That the legislation of the king was of no authority over a jury, is further proved by the oath taken by the kings at their coronation. This oath seems to have been substantially the same, from the time of the Saxon kings, down to the seventeenth century, as will be seen from the authorities hereafter given.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
