Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Most Important Parts of Kent´s Commentaries, Reduced to Questions and Answers To demonstrate the usefulness of the following work, which is now offered to the public generally, as well as to the legal profession, a preface might be deemed a work of supererogation, as its utility must be obvious to the general reader. The few remarks which follow, are given more out of a compliance to custom, than as an apology for the work itself. A writer in the British Register very judiciously observes, that "Of the subjects of human knowledge, law is far from being the least important; within the last fifty years, not only general law, but the law of the country in which we live, has been considered as an object of liberal inquiry, and well deserving the attention of the general scholar." The labours of the venerable chancellor Kent, have contributed in no small degree to disseminate this branch of useful knowledge; through his unwearying exertions and untiring zeal, this beautiful, but abstruse and difficult study has been rendered at once pleasing and instructive. "The work of Sir William Blackstone, by the elegance of its style, its lucid arrangement and finished execution, is so well adapted to render the study of the law attractive, and to give a knowledge of the constitution and laws of England, well deserving the attention of every liberal mind, that it has been, (though for many years, more from necessity than choice,) very properly placed in the hands of every law student, but as much of those admirable Commentaries relate to the political constitution of England, so different from our own, to its peculiar institutions, and to rights and duties, public and private, not existing in this country; an American work, exhibiting our own constitution, laws, usages, and civil relations, had long been wanted.
