Killing Is Murder: Or An Answer To A Treasonous Pamphlet Entitled, Killing Is No Murder (1657) is a historical book written by Michael Hawke. The book is a response to a pamphlet that was published during the English Civil War, which argued that killing a tyrant was not a crime but an act of justice. Hawke's book provides a counter-argument, stating that killing is always a crime, regardless of the circumstances. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a historical context for the pamphlet and the events leading up to its publication. It discusses the political climate of the time and the different factions that were vying for power. The second part of the book is a detailed analysis of the pamphlet itself. Hawke critiques the arguments put forth by the author and provides a logical and moral rebuttal to each one. Killing Is Murder: Or An Answer To A Treasonous Pamphlet Entitled, Killing Is No Murder is an important historical document that sheds light on the political and moral debates of the English Civil War. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political philosophy, ethics, and the rule of law.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
