Law Tracts, Vol. 2 of 2


Book Description

Excerpt from Law Tracts, Vol. 2 of 2: In Two Volumes There is no translation in the antient part of our english history more interesting and important, than the rise and progress, the gradual mutation, and final establishment of the charters of liberties, emphatically stiled The Great Charter and Charter of the Forest; and yet there is none that has been transmitted down to us with less accuracy and historical precision. There is not hitherto extant any full and correct copy of the charter granted by king John, M. Pines's engraving excepted, which, on account of the antiquity of it's character, is not fitted for general perusal: and the charters of king Henry the third have always been printed, even in our statute-books, not form the originals themselves, but from an Inspeximus of king Edward the first.

Historical Law-Tracts


Book Description

Excerpt from Historical Law-Tracts The history of mankind is a delightful subject. A rational inquirer is not less entertained than instructed, when he traces the gradual progress of manners, of laws, of arts, from their birth to their present maturity. Events and subordinate incidents are, in each of these, linked together, and connected in a regular chain of causes and effects. Law in particular becomes then only a rational study, when it is traced historically, from its first; rudiments among savages, through successive changes, to its highest improvements in a civilized society. And yet the study is seldom conducted in this manner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Tracts, Legal and Historical


Book Description

Excerpt from Tracts, Legal and Historical: With Other Antiquarian Matter Chiefly Relative to Scotland The following detached pieces, with the incidental allusions, principally owe their origin to the same motive that influenced the Author on a former occasion - a desire to clear up certain points that admitted of illustration, and to bring forward original notices. As every antiquarian knows - amid the fable that obscures Scottish antiquities nearly as greatly as the dearth of record, there is nothing so much wanting in every department, as genuine and unexceptionable facts, which often, as our distinguished countryman Lord Hailes has demonstrated, are of far greater importance than the reveries of our writers, and ingenious and speculative inferences.
