Justice in Colonial Virginia is a historical book written by Oliver Perry Chitwood in 1905. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the justice system in colonial Virginia, from the establishment of the colony in 1607 until the American Revolution in 1776. Chitwood examines the various aspects of the justice system, including the courts, the judges, the juries, and the laws that governed the colony. He explores the challenges that the justice system faced during this period, such as the lack of trained lawyers and judges, the limited resources of the courts, and the difficulties in enforcing the law in a vast and sparsely populated colony. Chitwood also discusses the impact of slavery on the justice system, including the laws that governed the treatment of slaves and the role of the courts in enforcing these laws. Overall, Justice in Colonial Virginia provides a fascinating insight into the history of the justice system in one of America's earliest colonies, shedding light on the challenges and complexities of administering justice in a rapidly evolving society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
