Readings On The History And System Of The Common Law eBook

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Grateful acknowledgment is made to the authors and publishers who have generously permitted the use of extracts from modern books. Every one who has to do with either the history or the system of our law is under a debt to Professor Wigmore. Beyond this, however, I am indebted to him for several important suggestions. My colleague, Professor Joseph Warren, and Professor H. W. Humble, of the University of Kansas, have also assisted by valuable criticisms.
