Description

In these essays Mr. Hurst shows the correlation between the conception of individual freedom and the application of law in the nineteenth-century United States — how men sought to use law to increase both their personal freedom and their opportunities for personal growth. These essays in jurisprudence and legal history are also a contribution to the study of social and intellectual history in the United States, to political science, and to economics as it concerns the role of public policy in our economy. The nonlawyer will find in them demonstration of how "technicalities" express deep issues of social values.

Published 1975.

Binding of book is intact. Moderate foxing, creasing, and shelfwear on covers of book. Sticker shadow on top corner of front cover. Slight tanning and some foxing on edges of book. Sticker around spine. Annotations in pencil and some foxing on insides of covers. Very little foxing and slight creasing on certain pages, otherwise in good condition.
