Bøker av Sir Frederick Pollock

A collection of Sir Frederick Pollock's lectures from the Carpentier Series at Columbia University. William Holdsworth praised the eight lectures as a discussion of "...critical studies of aspects and characteristics of the common law which only an accomplished legal historian, a master of the modern law, and a professor of jurisprudence could have written." William Holdsworth, Some Makers of English Law 287. vii, 141 pp.

Although this book was envisaged as a joint venture and bears the name of both Pollock and Maitland, it is substantially the work of Maitland. It was recognised at once as a masterpiece and has since been accepted as one of the great histories in the English language.
