This book examines how the English law of real property was overhauled in the 19th century. It begins by analyzing the statutes of limitation that acted to bar legal remedies for recovering property after a fixed amount of time had elapsed. These statutes sparked debate about what constituted a valid title to property, with some arguing that 60 years of uninterrupted possession was sufficient, while others maintained that the rightful owner could recover it at any time if they had not taken any action to assert their claim. The author delves into the nuances of these arguments, considering the impact of disabilities such as infancy or coverture, and the role of presumptions of death. The book also explores the concept of trusts in equity and how the statutes of limitation applied to them. This engaging and informative study sheds light on a crucial period in the development of English property law, providing valuable insights into the legal framework that governs property ownership today.
