Description

The History Of English Law, Before the Time Of Edward l, 2 Volumes Legal Classics Library / Leather Frederick Pollock and Frederic William Maitland Special edition, 1992. Two volumes, leather-bound. Privately printed for members of the Legal Classics Library. Beautiful marbled end pages with blue book ribbon. Very good condition.

Packaged with care and shipped ASAP with delivery confirmation. If you are not satisfied with the condition of the book, please return the item for a refund. A landmark work on English legal history. Professors Maitland of Cambridge and Pollock of Oxford joined forces (although Maitland is credited with the lion's share) to write what has been termed an epoch-making work. The authors elucidate the origins of English law, providing for the first time a systematic presentation of the early stages of its evolution. The first volume gives an historical overview, beginning with ecclesiastical law and proceeding to cover Anglo-Saxon law, Norman law, Roman and Canon law, and law in the time of Glanvill and Bracton. The second treats the doctrines of English law, including all aspects of tenure, the law of personal condition, status, and estate, and the jurisdiction and the communities of the land. Clear exposition and countless references make this an essential book for anyone interested in early English law. -- I also have for sale the four-volume leatherbound set William Blackstone's 'Commentaries on the Laws of England' - please check my other listings! https://www.ebay.com/itm/135464462649

    OUTSTANDING TRANSACTION & SUPERB SELLER! Condition of book as described, amazingly fast shipping, superb packaging, and reasonable price. Seller quickly answered my questions before I purchased the book. And I appreciate his covering the dust jacket with a sheet of removable plastic to protect it while shipping.

    The book "Henry Kissinger Soviet Agent" by Frank Capell was shipped promptly, carefully packaged and of even higher quality than described. I'll be sure to use this seller again!
