Why read it?

1 author picked Legal Medicine Volume 2 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Dr. Tidy’s work of two slim volumes packs a wallop of information about pathology in the Victorian Age. Not only does he explain how to examine dead bodies and their surroundings, he lists, at the bottom of the chapters, pertinent cases from legal history and from his own practice.

Tidy even gives in detail the murder trial at which it was used to get a conviction.

This is a great source for anyone looking for crime novel…

From E.J.'s list on the beginning of crime.
