Jacob 1686-1744 legal and literary author including much pornography is best known for The Country Gentleman's Vade Mecum 1717. After serving an apprenticeship to the law he became Secretary to the Hon. W. Blathwayt a celebrated courtier in the reign of William and Mary. Jacob a land-owner with a keen interest in farming was prompted to write the present work "as a companion to the purchaser.to render every thing plain and intelligible that persons of all capacities may be enabled to judge when they are secure and faithfully dealt with by the practisers of the law in everything that shall commonly occur" pp. viii-ix. He cautions topically "on the late flourishing business in Exchange Alley occasion'd by the great rise of the South-Sea Stock such extraordinary fortunes have been acquir'd by merchants and others that the immediate value of lands.is considerably advanc'd even to thirty five and forty years purchase near the city of London; but this cannot be expected to be a standard rule for the future or to times in general" p. xi.

Reprint of the first American edition from the second Tomlins edition 1809. The New Law-Dictionary was first published in 1729 and is "Jacob's masterpiece and constituted an entirely new departure in legal literature the dictionary which is also an abridgment." Cowley p. xci. In contrast to earlier works each entry summarizes all of the laws relating to the subject and offers extensive interpretive commentary. Jacob 1686-1744 was also careful to omit obsolete terms. It was recognized almost immediately that Jacob had created a highly useful legal encyclopedia that was both more detailed and concise than any other abridgment of the period. An extremely popular work that went through twelve editions by 1800 it offers unparalleled insights into Anglo-American law during the eighteenth century. T.E. Tomlin's 1762-1841 edition first published in 1797 is in effect an enlargement and improvement of Jacob's dictionary. Tomlins who in 1797 "remodeled the work and published several more editions in his own name. In this form Jacob's dictionary reached America.": Cowley A Bibliography of Abridgements Digests Dictionaries and Indexes of English Law to the Year 1800 xci. unknown books
