By Hugh Tilsley, Assistant Solicitor of Inland Revenue. Second Edition, with Supplement. This is an extremely useful and well edited book, well known to the profession and much esteemed by it."-LAW MAGAZINE.

"The cases are well stated and acutely criticised. But this is not all; the Book is complete, and admirably arranged for reference; and these merits we place to the credit of its official origin. It is a perfect working book of reference, and bears internal evidence of having been originally compiled, as the Author says, for the use of himself and those associated with him in his official duties."-See JURIST.

This Treatise on the Stamp Laws has taken its place in the law library as the standard authority on the very difficult but important subject to which it is devoted."-LAW TIMES.

The work in its new form appears to be simply and well arranged, and while much matter which has now become superfiuous has been expunged, a variety of important additions have been made. Mr. Tilsley's book has already been recognised by the Courts as an authority on the subjects of which it treats, and we are much mistaken if the new edition does not add greatly to the repute in which it has hitherto been held."-TIMES.
