| Summary | "Judgments in Vacation" by Sir Edward Abbott Parry is a collection of essays and reflections written in the early 20th century. The work offers insights into legal judgments made during vacation periods, along with various observations on society and human behavior seen through the lens of a County Court judge. It appears to mix humor and social commentary, addressing everyday legal cases and exploring broader themes related to justice, education, and human interactions. At the start of the book, the author sets the tone by discussing the unusual practice of a judge writing judgments during vacation times. He reflects on the challenges and absurdities of life in the County Court, illustrating the simplicity and complexity of everyday legal matters. Using engaging anecdotes, Parry introduces characters such as a collier and a widow, shedding light on their disputes and the interplay of social dynamics at play. This opening portion establishes an intriguing perspective on the judicial system while inviting readers to consider the impact of these small-scale conflicts on the broader social fabric.
