Commentaries on the Laws of England

Book II: Of the Rights of Things

About this book

The Commentaries were long regarded as the leading work on the development of English law and played a role in the development of the American legal system. They were in fact the first methodical treatise on the common law suitable for a lay readership since at least the Middle Ages. This is book two out of four, including more than 3000 footnotes and annotations.
