Pleas of the Crown

Hale’s Pleas of the Crown is cataloged separately from his longer History of the Pleas of the Crown. This record identifies the 1694 edition as an alternate to the requested 1972 Glazebrook edition. The distinction matters when following quotations, pagination, and editorial notes.

Alternate edition. Collection target: Glazebrook edition (1972).
