Description
Reprint of the final and best edition of the standard textbook. Hardcover, xiv, 448 pp. Originally published: Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1897. This valuable history is in two parts. The first is an account of Anglo-Saxon land law, the development of feudal tenure and the history of feudalism in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Special attention is given to the legislation of Edward I. The second part examines the history of uses, wills and conveyances. This fascinating account is further enriched with lengthy excerpts from Bracton, Glanville, the Year Books and the statutes (with translations).
