Description
In this hilarious and informative book, Richard De’ Ath has collected together the most incredible and amusing laws that exist around the world. There are hairdressers who can break the law by eating onions; animals that risk imprisonment by grazing on private property; and even couples who are under legal threat it they make love in a car, and accidentally sound the horn! The law has a punishment for each and every one of these cases and judges have meted them out too. From bizarre trials of matrimony to indigestible facts about food and drink, no statute book is left unopened as the author delves into the leather-bound volumes and unearths the most peculiar and entertaining instances of the lawmaker's art.
