December 11, 1890 issue

add to cart   close window

The article reviews the book "The Source of the Law of England: An Historical Introduction of English Laws," by H. Brunner. There is no better sketch of sources of the English law than Brunner's book. The English version of the book is a translation from the German language. It is very useful to students of constitutional as well as legal history. The reviewer felt sorry to find that the work of translating this excellent essay has fallen into incompetent hands. In opinion of the reviewer of this book, the translator is thoroughly acquainted neither with the German language nor with sources of the law of England.
