"Legal Lore: Curiosities of Law and Lawyers" by William Andrews is a collection of essays written in the late 19th century. This work explores fascinating and humorous aspects of law, often delving into historical and cultural contexts that reveal the quirks and oddities of legal practices through ages. It offers insights not only for legal professionals but also engages a broader reading public with its entertaining approach. The opening of the book presents a preface by the editor, William Andrews, outlining the purpose and structure of the collection. He indicates that the work will examine various curiosities related to law, similar to an earlier volume he edited. Subsequent sections introduce topics such as "Bible Law," which discusses the relationship between divine law and human legal systems, and it hints at the intertwining of legal and sacrificial practices. This introduction sets the stage for a deep dive into the peculiarities of legal history, from ancient tenures to trials of animals, and encompasses a range of intriguing discussions that blend history, law, and humor.
