Description

""A Nest of Wasps Lately Found Out and Discovered in the Law Countries, Yielding as Sweet Honey as Some of Our English Bees"" is a book written by William Goddard and published in 1615. The book details Goddard's experiences as a lawyer in the Low Countries, specifically in Holland and Zeeland. The title of the book is a metaphor for the corrupt and dishonest practices that Goddard witnessed among his colleagues in the legal profession. Despite the title's negative connotations, Goddard argues that there are still honest and virtuous lawyers to be found in the Low Countries. The book is written in a witty and humorous style, and provides an interesting insight into the legal system of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
