Smyth-sewn tan cloth bound hardcover with elegant red and black gilt stamped spine labels. A handsome set. New. $595. Freeman's Law of Judgments is widely praised as a masterpiece of American legal writing. This three-volume fifth edition is the most complete and desired version of the text. It provides an unmatched historical look at final court rulings party rights and legal equity. Freeman's 1925 edition is highly valued because it represents the ultimate distillation of common law logic. Landmark cases-including famous Supreme Court opinions on the "mutuality of estoppel" like Parklane Hosiery Co. v. Shore-explicitly cite this specific fifth edition of Freeman to anchor their modern decisions. Far from a mere historical relic Freeman's 5th edition remains a living force in American jurisprudence frequently cited by the U.S. Supreme Court and state appellate courts to resolve complex modern disputes over res judicata claim preclusion and the finality of judicial actions. Considered by Vanderbilt to be one of the great textbooks in which the history of American law might well be traced. Men and Measures in the Law p. 21. In the present treatise which cites over 35000 cases the editor has analyzed the cases with care. The book will be of great assistance to lawyers searching for authorities in the important field it covers. Harvard Law Review 322:283-5. unknown

Gardner 1799-1863 was an attorney who practiced in Troy New York and a local politician who held several minor municipal offices in that city. The first part of this remarkable work argues that international law needs to return to its roots in natural law revealed in Scripture. Two major prejudices are embedded in this argument: the United States has done this and Great Britain will not choosing instead to dominate the oceans through force. The brief second part addresses the "internal jurisdiction of our national government over the states the people of the United States and the Indian tribes possessing a portion of our territory" 269. It dispenses with the theological model of the first section to offer an outline of Federal powers as defined by constitutional law. His analysis of slavery is interesting. Though he clearly despises it Gardner concludes that it cannot be abolished by Congress. He hopes however that the "chivalry of the south" will eventually imitate "Alexander of Russia and nobly set their vassals free" 286. unknown

New. $54.95 Reprint of the second edition the final authorial edition. "The Law Military has undergone many changes in this country since the year 1860. Some of these changes have been of a radical character introducing many new features into the administration of military jurisprudence. The relation of the military to the civil power has also during the same time received much attention. These considerations would of themselves abundantly explain the raison d'etre of a new work on military law. It supplies a want that has long been felt. But besides this military law has grown in importance more persons being affected by it and powers having been vested in military courts which they have never held before. That this is felt to be the case is shown by the increased facilities for acquiring it which the government affords him. At the U.S. Military Academy a professorship and an assistant professorship have been established for this purpose. . Ives' treatise is intended as a text-book in a course on military law as well as for use throughout the army; and in my opinion he has met with marked success in adapting it to his purposes.": From the Preface by Guido N. Lieber Professor of Law at West Point and the son of Francis Lieber. Ives 1849-1881 was an artillery officer and Assistant Professor of Law at West Point. unknown

New. $59.95 This treatise served as a practical guidebook for states seeking to institute constitutional conventions and it remains relevant today. Based on a study on 192 American constitutional conventions Jameson analyzes the nature and sources of constitutions and shows how they are produced. Some arise from a "spontaneous convention." Others are the result of a "legislative convention" "revolutionary convention" or "constitutional convention." "Jameson's work remains a legal landmark notably not simply as the first treatise in this area but also for its continuing insights into issues of constitutional change at both the state and national levels. Although it no longer occupies the field it once did Jameson's treatise remains the single most comprehensive work on the subject and a fertile source of insights and ideas." --John R.
