[55518 XL44EL46EL50EL51E] $ 1,250.00 One of the five greatest English law books, a substantial folio, here in an edition which Maitland praised, particularly for its notes and their value for the study of English medieval law. 2.

[66349] $ 65.00 Frank's last work, "[w]itty and didactic, contentious and unsettling", offering a blueprint for major reform of the trial courts, placing him squarely in the camp of the 'fact-skeptics', and securing him a unique niche in American legal realism. 5.

[66184] $ 45.00 A later reissue of a classic of 20th century American legal realism, unstintingly praised by Felix Frankfurter, Karl Llewellyn and Felix Cohen and bracketed in importance with Holmes 'Common Law' and Cardozo's 'Nature of the Judicial Process'. 6.
