Description
This compelling biography of one of the most influential judges of the twentieth century draws on little examined material to provide a comprehensive, intimate account of the life of Lord Devlin. Lord Devlin was a leading lawyer of his generation. Moreover, he was one of the most recognised figures in the judiciary, thanks to his role in the John Bodkin Adams trial and the Nyasaland Commission of Inquiry. It is hard then to believe that he retired as a Law Lord at a mere 58 years of age. This important book looks at the life, influences and impact of this most important judicial figure. Starting with his earliest days as a schoolboy before moving on to his later years, the author draws a compelling picture of a complex, brilliant man who would shape not just the law but society more generally in post-war Britain. —- ISBN: 9781509923700 | ISBN10: 1509923705 | ISBN-13: 978-1509923700
