Author: Theodore F. T. Plucknett
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company, 1956
Condition: Hardcover, no dust jacket, wear and tear to cover, yellowed edges, interior clean
As always during its long history, English common law, upon which American law is based, has had to defend itself against the challenge of civil law's clarity and traditions. That challenge to our common-law heritage remains today. To that end, Liberty Fund now makes available a clear and candid discussion of common law. A Concise History of the Common Law provides a source for common-law understanding of individual rights, not in theory only, but protected through the confusing and messy evolution of courts and their administration as they struggled to resolve real problems. Plucknett's seminal work is intended to convey a sense of historical development--not to serve merely as a work of reference.
