The Star Chamber V1, Part 1: For April, 19 To June, 7, 1826 (1826) is a historical book written by Benjamin Disraeli. The book covers the proceedings of the Star Chamber, a court of law in England that was active from the 15th to the 17th century. The court was known for its strict and often brutal punishments, and its proceedings were shrouded in secrecy. Disraeli’s book provides a detailed account of the court’s activities during a specific period of time, from April 19 to June 7, 1826. The book is divided into two parts, with Part 1 covering the first half of this period. It includes transcripts of the court’s proceedings, as well as commentary and analysis by Disraeli. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the workings of one of England’s most notorious courts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
