Includes lovely rendering of London. John Speed 1552-1629 born in Cheshire and a tailor by profession until he was 50 is widely considered to be the most famous English cartographer of the 17th century. He is noted for placing England in the mainstream of map publishing an industry which was at the time dominated by the Dutch. His atlas "The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine" contained the first set of individual county maps of England and Wales as well as significant town plans that are in many cases the first visual records of their subjects.<br/><br/> George Humble unknown books
186532612Washington 1865. 16pp disbound light rubberstamp Good.<br/><br/> Speed was a Kentuckian appointed as Lincoln's Attorney General in 1864. Though a Border State moderate he quickly became an all-out Union man with the outbreak of war. Here he opines that trial of the alleged presidential assassins should occur by military commission rather than civil courts: the law of war as part of the law of nations has implicitly been adopted in the Constitution. "When lawless wretches become so impudent and powerful as not to be controlled and governed by the ordinary tribunals of a country armies are called out and the laws of war invoked." The laws of war do not require different treatment of "secret active enemies" and "open active enemies" who would be tried by military tribunal. Under these circumstances the alleged assassins may be tried by military court without a jury. <br/>FIRST EDITION. Monaghan 739. II Harv. Law Cat. 634. Not in LCP. unknown books
