[edit] Blue laws

What is the relation of this book to the Blue Laws of Connecticut? In the Notes following the book, Clemens discusses various forms of corporal punishment (and other punishments that are considered "Cruel and Unusual" in modern America) throughout English history and submits these examples in apparent defense of the "Blue Laws" of Connecticut (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_laws), claiming that by the standards of the time they were what he calls "the first sweeping departure from judicial atrocity". Is this just an historical note that he is making, or was there a controversy at the time regarding these laws? He goes into such great detail that I am inclined to wonder if it is not the latter. 216.93.228.86 00:30, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] There should be more about topics in the book.

This book is very important! The article should include a section on the factuality of some parts; i.e., note some interesting parts that were true. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.190.180.238 (talk) 02:47, 3 May 2007 (UTC).
