October 7, 1915 issue

This article focuses on two books "The Collected Papers of John Westlake on Public International Law," edited by L. Oppenheim and "The Relation of International Law to the Law of England and of the United States," by Cyril M. Picciotto. Professor John Westlake has no tolerance for the idea that international law should be treated as an esoteric branch of study. Professor Westlake's view that international law is a part of the law of the land is subjected to careful scrutiny by Picciotto in his book. He inquires separately into the relations of international law to the prize law, the statutory law, and the common law of England and the U.S. and reaches a conclusion quite at variance with that of Westlake.
