Book Description

Excerpt from The Life of Sir Matthew Hale, Knt: Sometime Lord Chief Justice of His Majesty's Court of King's-Bench My ignorance of the law of England made me also unfit to write of a man, a great part of whose character as tobis Inmhg is to be taken from his skill in the common law, and his performance in that. But I shall leave that to those of the same robe; since if I engaged much in it, I must needs commit many errors, writing of a subject that is foreign to me.
