Bag om Letters To John Bull

""Letters to John Bull: On Lawyers and Law Reform"" is a book written by Joshua Williams in 1857. The book is a collection of letters addressed to John Bull, a fictional character who represents the common man in England. The letters discuss the legal system in England, the role of lawyers, and the need for legal reform. Williams, a lawyer himself, argues that the legal system is too complex and expensive for the average person to navigate. He also criticizes the legal profession for being too focused on making money rather than serving justice. The letters provide examples of cases where the legal system has failed to deliver justice, and propose solutions to these problems. Williams suggests simplifying the legal system, reducing the cost of legal proceedings, and increasing access to legal aid for those who cannot afford it. The book was written during a time of significant legal reform in England, and Williams' ideas contributed to the ongoing debate about the role of the legal system in society. ""Letters to John Bull"" remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of law and legal reform 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.
