Tractate Sanhedrin, Mishnah and Tosefta by Herbert Danby [1919]

This is a translation of the Talmud tractate Sanhedrin, which deals with judicial procedure, particularly relating to capital punishment. The author is a Christian academic, and the translation includes the primary text (Mishna) and the second-level commentary (Tosefta). This book is a good supplement to the Rodkinson translation of the same tractate, particularly because this version has extensive scholarly apparatus lacking in the Rodkinson translation.
