á In West Virginia it is a crime to display or possess a red or black flag?
á It is illegal to sell stuffed articles depicting female breasts within a thousand feet of any county highway in California?
á Spherical fishbowls have been banned in Rome since 2004?
There are hundreds of bizarre laws that we could be breaking at any moment. What exactly are we doing that we shouldn't be doing, and what happens if we get caught? In this engaging and insightful collection, Nathan Belofsky takes us on a journey of eclectic, unexpected, and bizarre laws from around the world.
Written by a practicing lawyer with an eye for his profession's most unusual quirks, The Book of Strange and Curious Legal Oddities offers a delightful look at the legal system's peculiarities through the ages.
