""Thoughts On The Punishment Of Death For Forgery"" is a book written by Basil Montagu in 1830. The book is a critical analysis of the death penalty for the crime of forgery. Montagu argues that the punishment is too severe and that it should be reformed. He presents his arguments based on legal, moral, and practical grounds. Montagu contends that the death penalty for forgery is not only cruel, but it also fails to deter the crime. He suggests alternative forms of punishment that would be more effective in reducing the incidence of forgery. The book is a significant contribution to the debate on the death penalty and criminal justice reform. It is a must-read for anyone interested in legal history, criminology, and human rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
