Frailties Of The Jury is a book written by Henry S. Wilcox in 1907. The book is a detailed analysis of the American jury system and its flaws. Wilcox takes a critical look at the jury system and argues that it is not a perfect mechanism for administering justice. He examines the various frailties of the jury, such as the influence of public opinion, the tendency to be swayed by emotions and prejudices, and the lack of knowledge of the law. Wilcox also explores the history of the jury system and its evolution over time. He provides numerous examples of cases where the jury system has failed to deliver justice. The book is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the American jury system and its limitations. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the workings of the American justice system.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
