Overview

Excerpt from Outlines of Criminal Law and Procedure: For the Use of Students By the use of this printed synopsis in connection with lec tures and collateral reading, or even with such collateral reading alone, it is believed the student may acquire a better general knowledge of the subject than by the study of those large treatises which are now the standard text - books. In deed, it would be inexpedient, if not wholly impracticable, to give, either in a class or ih. Private, instruction, sufficient time to this branch of law, to go'through the four or five large volumes which Bishop and Wharton each devote to the law and pro cedure. As to smaller works, none of them cover procedure, and in treating of the law they devote too much attention to a multitude of offences which are either no longer of practical importance, or which' are purely statutory, and too little to the general doctrines. There is a need here, as in other branches of the law, for a book designed for the student, rather than the practitioner. The author has not presumed to attempt to supply such a book, but has resorted to an expedient, by no means original with him, to bridge over the difficulty.
