Plan Of A Penal Statute, Proposed For Adoption To The Legislature Of Kentucky is a book written by Samuel Smith Nicholas in 1850. The book is a proposal for a new penal statute to be adopted by the Kentucky legislature. The author argues that the current penal system is inadequate and needs to be reformed. He suggests a number of changes, including the establishment of a penitentiary system, the abolition of the death penalty for all crimes except murder, and the introduction of a system of parole. The book is a detailed and well-researched proposal that provides a comprehensive overview of the problems with the current penal system and offers practical solutions for reform. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the attitudes towards crime and punishment in the mid-19th century United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
