The Curiosities and Law of Wills

"The Curiosities and Law of Wills" by John Proffatt is a book that looks at the ins and outs of wills. It examines how wills are made, how they're understood in court, and weird stories connected to them, showing what people are like. The author wants to make this topic interesting while also giving clear advice to students, lawyers, and anyone curious. The book starts by talking about how important it is to make a last will. It's the last chance someone has to say what they think and feel about their life and the people in it. Wills can show who someone really was, including their strange habits, feelings, and opinions about life and death. The author uses strange and interesting will examples from history to lead into the more serious discussion about the laws and rules that control wills. The beginning part is intended to be attention-grabbing before moving into a discussion of legal components of wills.
