The Trial of James Thomas, Earl of Cardigan: Before the Right Honorable the House of Peers, in Full Parliament, for Felony is a historical book written by William Brodie Gurney in 1841. The book provides a detailed account of the trial of James Thomas Brudenell, the 7th Earl of Cardigan, who was accused of committing felony. The trial was held in the House of Peers in full Parliament, making it a significant event in British legal history.The book covers the entire trial, including the charges against Cardigan, the evidence presented, the arguments made by the prosecution and defense, and the verdict. It also includes transcripts of the speeches made by the various members of Parliament during the trial, providing a glimpse into the political and social climate of the time.The trial itself was a highly publicized event, as Cardigan was a well-known figure in British society and a hero of the Crimean War. His alleged crime, the shooting of another officer in a dispute over a woman, only added to the scandal and intrigue surrounding the trial.Overall, The Trial of James Thomas, Earl of Cardigan is a fascinating historical document that provides insight into the legal system and social attitudes of 19th century Britain. It is a must-read for anyone interested in legal history, British history, or the life of James Thomas Brudenell.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
