Edward Payson Evans (University of Michigan). Animal Trials (Hesperus Press Limited, 2013; first published in 1906).
"Including trials in Germany, France, Switzerland, Great Britain, Scandinavia, and Russia dating back as far as 824, Animal Trials provides a fascinating insight into the bygone era, addressing important social issues and religious questions, which remain just as relevant today such as animal rights and capital punishment. Payson Evans' wry attitude to the material only increases the peculiar nature of the work, making it a truly intriguing read."
