Sir George Mackenzie

Reprint of the standard biography of MacKenzie.

His works include The Laws and Customs of Scotland, In Matters Criminal (1678), which is available as a Lawbook Exchange reprint.

Sir George Mackenzie

Excerpt from Sir George Mackenzie: King's Advocate, of Rosehaugh, His Life and Times; 1636 1691 IN the education of Scotland the Restoration was1 a bitter but necessary moment. The century Of war between' State and Kirk, arising from the intolerable claims which the Crown on one side, and the preachers on the other, asserted, must come to an end in one way or another, if Scotland was ever to be reasonably tranquil. Between 1660 and 1689, the two contending powers wore each other down: the Government of William Of Orange then entered perforce on constitutional paths; the pretensions of the preachers were henceforth maintained, but mainly in a platonic, not a practical fashion. It is impossibl...

The Laws and Customes of Scotland, in Matters Criminal

Reprint of the first edition of one of the earliest systematic studies of the criminal law. Sir George MacKenzie of Rosenhugh [1636-1691], "became notable for his resistance to the pretensions of the Crown, but in 1677, he was made Lord Advocate and in the next few years prosecuted and persecuted Covenanters with such zeal as to earn the title 'The Bloody Mackenzie.' In many cases he strained the law so as to obtain a conviction.": Walker, Oxford Companion to Law 792. He is also well-known for having founded the Advocates Library, now the national law library for Scotland. In contrast to Mackenzie's behavior on the bench, the Laws and Customes is notably moderate, especially in the sections dealing with witchcraft.
