Reviews

The book is indeed a narrative that embraces legal history, the government of India, the Victorian press, the crisis of religious faith... paradise lost of political liberalism...' and much more. A treasure trove of fact, anecdote and analysis, it provides illuminating insights into the intellectual ferment that characterised the Victorian age. For lawyers and non-lawyers alike, it is a fascinating read. * Phillip Taylor, 'A narrative that embraces legal history' the biography of an eminent Victorian jurist by his brother, Leslie Stephen. *
