Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a vibrant glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential and idiosyncratic figures in the history of the Scottish legal system, set against the rich background of 18th and 19th-century Scottish society. The eccentric personalities brought to life in this book include Henry Home, Lord Kames, a judge whose interests extended far beyond the realm of law to encompass literature, farming, architecture, and the fledgling science of psychology. The author presents a compelling portrait of this brilliant, vain, and profoundly contradictory man, and offers fascinating insights into the broader cultural and intellectual currents that shaped his life and work.
