""History Of The Last Trial By Jury For Atheism In England: A Fragment of Autobiography Submitted for the Perusal of Her Majesty's Attorney-General and the British Clergy"" by George Jacob Holyoake, offers a compelling glimpse into a pivotal moment in the fight for religious freedom. This historical account details the last trial by jury in England centered around atheism, providing a unique and personal perspective on the challenges faced by those who dared to question religious dogma.

Holyoake's narrative, presented as a fragment of his autobiography, vividly portrays the social and legal landscape of the time. It offers insights into the attitudes towards atheism and the workings of the English justice system, particularly the concept of trial by jury, within the context of religious belief. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of atheism, the struggle for religious tolerance in England, or the intersection of religion and science. It remains a significant testament to the enduring importance of intellectual and religious liberty.
