Killing Is Murder is a historical book written by Michael Hawke that was originally published in 1657. The book is a response to a pamphlet entitled Killing Is No Murder, which argued that it was justifiable to kill King Charles I of England. Hawke's book is a passionate defense of the sanctity of human life and argues that killing is always wrong, regardless of the circumstances. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which addresses a different argument put forth in Killing Is No Murder. Hawke cites biblical passages, philosophical arguments, and legal precedents to support his position. He also draws on his own experiences as a soldier and a lawyer to provide real-life examples of the devastating consequences of violence. In addition to its philosophical and theological arguments, Killing Is Murder is also a historical document that sheds light on the political and social climate of England in the mid-17th century. The book was written during the Cromwellian era, a time of great political upheaval and religious conflict. Hawke's book reflects the deep divisions within English society at the time, as well as the intense debates over the role of the monarchy and the legitimacy of political violence. Overall, Killing Is Murder is a powerful and thought-provoking book that challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about violence and justice. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political thought, the ethics of violence, or the social and political context of 17th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
