"Wise...traces with reverent care how the question of the legality of slavery developed within England....He has an eye for evocative detail and an interest in the trappings and procedures of an 18th-century courtroom that do as much to engage the reader as the drama of the trials themselves. And he has a good lawyer's love of those moments in which the true poetry of humane justice finds its voice."Wise, Steven M. is the author of 'Though The Heavens May Fall The Landmark Trial That Led To The End Of Human Slavery', published 0007 under ISBN 9780738206950 and ISBN 0738206954.
