versus Lord Denman's law, or, What is libel
Poster advertising a forthcoming pamphlet by T.A. Evans, discussing a dispute over the authenticity of various Nelson relics, but most particularly a dress sword. The author, T.A. Evans had been accused in the pages of The Times of falsely selling a forged sword as a genuine relic. The pamphlet is promised to discuss "the recent trial at law against The Times, for libel, in which he was defeated" and to set forth further evidence of his probity and the item's authenticity.

Sword
beach : the untold story of D-Day's forgotten victory /Stephen Fisher.
"6th June 1944 saw the largest seaborne assault in human history: D-Day. The landings on the five Normandy beaches, Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword, will go down in legend as the first footsteps on the journey to end the war in northern Europe. While much has been written about the operation as a whole, little detailed attention has been paid to the battle for Sword Beach itself, the easternmost of the amphibious attack areas. For the first time, historian and archaeologist Stephen Fisher puts the British landing under the spotlight and using previously unseen research, documents and personal testimonies pieces together the buildup, the day itself and its aftermath in such a way as to uniquely bring the operation to vivid life. Following a massive air and naval bombardment that began before the sun had even risen, the stage was set for the first of tens of thousands of troops to come ashore on Sword that day. It was to be a day of triumph and tragedy as the Allies pushed forward to the key objective of Caen against German defenders who were, uniquely on D-Day, backed up by an armoured division. Never before has this campaign been afforded such insightful and detailed scrutiny. Stephen Fisher brings his considerable knowledge and expertise to paint a thrilling picture of how the deep beachhead was established and pays tribute to the heroism and sacrifices that were made on that fateful day."--Provided by the publisher.
