May on Criminal Evidence is a concise and analytical work examining evidence and procedure in criminal trials.

Concentrating on the problems that arise in all trials, whether summary or indictment, it covers all forms of criminal evidence with clear explanation throughout, and examination of what the burden and standard of proof is.
