Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Maritime Codes of Spain and Portugal In the course of practice extending over a quarter of a century, mainly in the High Court of Admiralty and its successor, the Admiralty Section of the Probate, Divorce and Admiralty Division, I have frequently come in contact with an urgent necessity for some knowledge of the Maritime Law of Foreign Countries. Pursuing the study in the intervals of a busy life, I thought it might be that others, both those practising the Law and also Shipowners, Merchants, and Underwriters brought in contact with the practical effect of those Laws, might desire to see them in a more accessible form than they could be generally obtained in. I therefore proceeded to publish such translations as I made, or, in some cases, edited, in the Nautical Magazine and Law Magazine and Review, and now am trying the experiment of publishing in a separate form. The present volume gives the Maritime Law of the Iberian Peninsula. Having regard to the immense trade between England and the Peninsula, in ore, fruit and wine, not to mention other matters, and the large passenger traffic carried in British vessels between the Peninsula and South America, and the number of British vessels which call for coals and other purposes at Vigo, Teneriffe, Lisbon, Las Palmas, and St. Vincent, it would seem an appropriate commencement. If this little volume receives sufficient support the series will be continued. I had the kind permission of the late Lord Hannen to dedicate the series to him. I now, alas, can only dedicate it to his memory, a memory which will survive, so long as the practice and study of the Law remains, as that of a great judge, and, as long as any of those who had the inestimable privilege of practising before him survive, as that of the most patient instructor and kindest friend.
