Extract

Looked at with respect to subject-matter these two books are more truly two parts of one work, the former being the historical introduction and the latter the dogmatic and critical exposition of the present law. Indeed they were intended originally to be one volume and separation resulted from inclusion of the historical portion in the Cambridge Studies in English Legal History, to which the dogmatic and critical portion, perhaps with excess of scrupulousness, was thought inappropriate. It must be said, however, that the line has been drawn skilfully between the two volumes and those who have occasion to use the second for practical purposes may very likely prefer the arrangement as it stands.
