It's finally feeling like fall, and it seems fitting to share some books from our collection with leaves! These two volumes of The Law Books of the Realm of Sweden (Sverikes Rikes Lagh) from 1666 feature some surprises in the pages, and lots of signs that someone took advantage of the large format for pressing leaves and flowers.

Besides leaves, the books contain the most important Swedish legal texts of the time, including Rules for Judges, which was written in the early 16th century and formed the basis of Sweden and Finland's legal traditions. The books were also once owned by politician Berndt Hasselrot (1862-1930), Sweden's Minister of Justice from 1914-1917.
