Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. First Edition. "Throughout the British colonies in the nineteenth century, judges were expected not only to administer law and justice but also to play a significant role within the governance of their jurisdictions. British authorities were consequently concerned about judges' loyalty to the Crown and on occasion removed or suspended those who were found politically subversive or personaly difficult. Using the career histories of judges who challenged the system, [this book] illuminates issues of judicial tenure, accountability, and independence throughout the British Empire. Closely examines cases of judges who faced disciplinary action. Provides helpful insights into the tenuous position of the colonial judiciary and the precarious state of politics in a variety of British Colonies." - dust jacket.
