Trial by ordeal, involving extreme tests like walking over hot irons or being submerged in water, served as a significant method of justice for centuries. Despite its seemingly barbaric nature today, this practice was often effective in determining guilt or innocence. The book explores the historical context and cultural implications of these ordeals, shedding light on their role in shaping legal systems and societal beliefs about justice during their time.
