Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Manual Based Upon Lectures Delivered at the Naval War College By the wish and direction of the Secretary of the Navy, a course of lectures on international law was arranged for by Capt. H. C. Taylor, U. S. N., president of the Naval War College, and delivered at that institution by the late Dr. Freeman Snow, of Harvard University, during the summer course of 1894. The sad and unexpected death of Dr. Snow before the termination of the course at the War College prevented the preparation of the lectures for publication by his hands as originally intended by the Navy Department. The manuscript and notes left by Dr. Snow, though incomplete, were considered to be sufficiently valuable to justify publication after due preparation. This has been done by the writer with the assistance of the friends of Dr. Snow at Harvard University. After consultation with them it was also considered wiser, ii view of its proposed use, to arrange the volume according to subjects rather than to follow the original divisions by lectures. To Professor Mac Vane, of Harvard College, especial acknowledgment is due for his valuable assistance in suggestion and material, the subjects with which he is charged at that institution covering matters common to both constitutional and international law. To Mr. Ernest L. Conant, the successor of Dr. Snow at Harvard, thanks are also due for valuable suggestions and services. It is believed that anything that adds to the increased dissemination of the rules and usages of international law will strengthen its authority and extend its practice, and thus lead when the occasion arises to the creation of safe precedents by officers of the Navy. Under our Government at present the naval service is the only one combining permanence of tenure with constant dealings in matters of international law in peace and war. In presenting this volume to my brother officers, I ask that due allowance be made for the difficulties arising from the circumstances of the publication, and I also desire to express to them my deep regret at the loss sustained by the death of Dr. Snow. Had he been spared to himself prepare this work for publication he would have more fully added to those services in his country´s behalf which had in the past brought him wounds and distinction.
