Excerpt from A History of the Criminal Law of England, Vol. 1 of 3
This work, which attempts to relate the history of the Criminal Law of England, has a history of its own.
In 1863 I published what in one sense may be called the first edition of this work under the title of A General View of the Criminal Law. In 1869 I became Legal Member of the Council of the Viceroy in India, and held that office for about two years and a half, during which time my attention was strongly directed, from the legislative point of view, to the subject of Criminal Law, and particularly to its codification. Amongst other things, I drew and carried through the Legislative Council the Code of Criminal Procedure, Act X. of 1872, which, with some slight alterations and variations has just been reenacted and extended to the High Courts by Act X. of 1882.
In 1873 or 1874 I was informed that a second edition of my General View was wanted. I began to prepare one, but I found myself hampered at every page by the absence of any authoritative statement of the law to which I might refer. It then occurred to me that as there was no such statement in existence I might write something which at all events would express my own views as to what the law was, to which I might refer in discussing its provisions historically and critically. Acting on this I wrote my Digest of the Criminal Law which was published in 1877, and cf which a third edition is just coming out.
