Halifax And Its Gibbet-Law Placed In A True Light is a historical book written by William Bentley in 1761. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the infamous Gibbet Law of Halifax, a legal system that allowed for swift and brutal punishment for various crimes. Bentley explores the origins of the law, its implementation, and the various controversies that surrounded it. He also provides detailed accounts of some of the most notorious cases that were tried under the Gibbet Law. The book sheds light on the brutal and often arbitrary nature of justice in 18th-century England and provides a fascinating insight into the social and legal history of Halifax. Bentley's writing is engaging and informative, making this book a must-read for anyone interested in the history of crime and punishment in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
