Abstract

The article profiles Saint George Tucker, a law professor, legal scholar and a judge from Bermuda Island. He studied at the College of William and Mary where he took general academic courses of natural and moral philosophy and studied law. He made it to the bar of the country courts and to the General Court, but the American War of Independence held his career for seven years. He was elected judge of the General Court in 1788 because of his considerable reputation in all courts and bar.
