Excellent copies in a handsome binding. $2500 State of Justice: only edition; Short History: reissue of a title issued three times in 1698. The anonymous author of The State of Justice positions himself as an opponent of bribery and the sale of offices and sinecures and a supporter of an equal distribution of justice and the rule of law. He warns: "It is not the law alone that makes a right government but upright justice and the equal distribution of it which ought to be deeper engraven in the hearts of those who are authorised to execute justice than in tables of stone" 9. It is a learned and somewhat cranky essay filled with references to Roman European and English history. Trenchard's Short Essay is a classic argument against standing armies a central theme in the commonwealthmen tradition that was quite influential in America. This issue was probably a reaction to the expansion of England's military establishment during the Anglo-Spanish War 1727-29 The State of Justice is a rare title.
