A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Manual, it has been my desire to produce a book bearing the same relation to Mr. Lewin selaborate treatise as Mr. Hawkins Work on the Construction of Wills bears to that of Mr. Jarman ;that is to say, a book of a really practical, but at the same time concise, character. The law libraries are rich in great works of reference, the store-houses, so to speak, of the Law; but they are, in a great measure, merely collections of that codeless mj Tiad, that wilderness of single instances, from which it requires many years of study and experience to extract general principles. That this is so was vigorously expressed by the late Sir James FiTZJAMES Stephen in the preface to his Digest of the Law of Evidence, where he said: It becomes obvious, that if a lawyer is to have anything better than a familiarity ith indexes, he must gain his knowledge in some other way than from existing books on the subject. No doubt such knowledge is to be gained. Experience gives by degrees, in favourable cases, a comprehensive acquaintance with the principles of the law with which a practitioner is I.T.
