"Glengarry's Way and Other Studies" is a compelling collection of essays by William Roughead, often celebrated as a pioneer of the modern true crime genre. This volume delves into the fascinating and often dark corners of Scottish legal history, offering a series of meticulously researched accounts of criminal trials, legal anomalies, and historical curiosities. Roughead, a lawyer by training, combines a professional's precision with a storyteller's flair to bring to life the complex human dramas found within official records.

The title essay focuses on the volatile and eccentric Alastair Ranaldson Macdonell of Glengarry, whose life and legal entanglements serve as a window into the social and judicial landscape of the Highlands. Beyond this central figure, the collection explores various other "studies" that range from infamous murders to peculiar points of law and forgotten judicial scandals. Through these narratives, Roughead examines the evolution of justice and the enduring mysteries of the criminal mind. This work remains a significant contribution to historical criminology, providing a rich, atmospheric, and highly readable look at the intersection of law, history, and human behavior in Scotland.
