Courts and Procedure in England and in New Jersey

By Charles Hopkins Hartshorne

Novelist Raymond Chandler once said, “The Law isn’t justice. It’s a very imperfect mechanism. If you press exactly the right buttons and are also lucky, justice may show up in the answer.”

This book takes you a century back in time to dive into the faults of the American judiciary system. You’d think after all this time, the problems must have been fixed, but even today it’s still a matter of public criticism and political satire.

Charles H. Hartshorne compares the American and English justice systems, arguing that “the English have come nearer the solution of this problem… and in this book I have tried to show the principles which they have followed.”

This book gives insight on immaculate democracy and political reform through the example of justice, though the fundamental principles can be applied to any political structure. As Hartshorne put it:

“These pages will put within the reach of those who wish to know, the experience of other communities in attempting to solve the problem that now faces us.”
