Synopsis

The History of English Law Volume 2: Before the Time of Edward I, written by Frederick Pollock, is a comprehensive study of the development of English law from the earliest times up to the reign of King Edward I. The book is a continuation of Pollock's earlier work, which covered the period from Edward I to the present day.In this volume, Pollock explores the evolution of English law from its origins in the customs and traditions of the Anglo-Saxon tribes, through the Norman Conquest and the establishment of the common law, to the end of the reign of King Henry III. He examines the various legal systems that existed in England during this period, including the laws of the Anglo-Saxon kings, the Norman feudal system, and the emerging common law.The book also delves into the social and political context in which the law developed, including the influence of the Church, the growth of towns and cities, and the changing relationship between the king and his subjects. Pollock provides detailed analysis of key legal concepts and institutions, such as the jury system, the writ system, and the development of legal precedent.Overall, The History of English Law Volume 2: Before the Time of Edward I is a comprehensive and authoritative account of the development of English law, providing valuable insight into the legal, social, and political history of England during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
