Shankland, Peter; Havers, Sir Michael
Murder With a Double Tongue - The Enigma of Clarissa Manson
295 pages including index and some black and white illustrations. "Some of the proceedings described in the following pages seem unjust to us, but we have to remember that these trials took place about 160 years ago. Many important reforms have been introduced both in England and France which have gone far to establish and safeguard the rights of the accused. One aspect has not changed; a criminal trial in France is more dramatic, more akin to the theatre, than in England, both in its setting and in the display of emotion." - from Foreward. Several cup rings upon back board. Small rubber stamp upon front endpaper else contents clean and unmarked. Light to moderate wear. Solid copy. Book

Cyllorn, Jud
Stop Apologizing
Approximately 500 pages. The People's of the White Western World have been and are being prosecuted and found guilty for their way; for their beliefs and even for history. All this without there ever having been a fair trial! The Governments of these people have led this prosecution, paying for it with the People's own (taxes) money, not one penny being offered to any to make a statement of defense. "In my lifetime, I have seen a rapid increase in opinion being portrayed as fact, even opinion being legislated as fact... Herewith the end result of collecting my personal opinions...." Much stimulating reading for anyone concerned by the ongoing destruction of Canada. Creasing to covers. Average wear to contents. Unmarked. Binding solid. Remains a solid working copy. Book
