2006437102006. ISBN-13: 9781584776369; ISBN-10:1584776366. The First American Treatise on the Law of Contracts Chipman Daniel. An Essay on the Law of Contracts for the Payment of Specifick Articles. Originally published: Middlebury Vt.: Published by the Author 1822. xvi 17-224 pp. Reprinted 2006 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584776369. ISBN-10: 1584776366. Cloth. New. $65. Reprint of the uncommon first edition. Chipman's Essay was the first original treatise on the subject written in the United States. Verplanck's An Essay on the Doctrine of Contracts 1825 was the second. In his Legal Bibliography 1847 Marvin criticized Chipman for "showing what the law of contracts ought to be rather than what the law of contracts is" 189. This remark indicates Marvin's failure to grasp the changing nature of contract law and it shows that Chipman's ideas were ahead of their time. Indeed as Horwitz points out Chipman was the first American to submerge the "dominant equity theory of contract in a conception of contractual obligation based exclusively on express bargains" determined by market values. Chipman 1765-1850 was a Vermont lawyer a professor of law at Middlebury a representative to the state legislature and the U.S. Congress and a delegate to several Vermont constitutional conventions. unknown books
