Sir William Garrow

Sir William Garrow was born in Middlesex in 1760 and called to the Bar in 1783. He was the dominant figure at the Old Bailey from 1783 to 1793, later becoming an MP, Solicitor-General, Attorney-General and finally a judge and lawmaker within the Common Law Tradition. In this book, legal historian and biographer John Hostettler and family storyteller Richard Braby (a descendant of Garrow) combine their skills and experience to produce a comprehensive account of Garrow's life and career.
