KENT'S COMMENTARIES ON AMERICAN LAW.

COMMENTARIES ON AMERICAN LAW.

By Hon. JAMES KENT. Edited and Revised by O. W. HOLMES, Junr. 12th Edition. 4 vols. royal 8vo. 1873. £5.

In the present edition of this work an attempt has been made to bring it down through the quarter of a century which has elapsed since the author's death.

The great weight attaching to any opinion of Chancellor Kent has been deemed a sufficient reason for not attempting any alteration in his text or notes. To insure accuracy, this edition has been printed from the eleventh, and then carefully read with the sixth, which contained the author's last corrections. The original text has been scrupulously restored, except that, whenever a difference between the proofs and the sixth edition has occurred in a citation, it has been corrected in the proper abbreviated form. In this way a large proportion of the author's citations have been verified; and it is believed that the present revision, together with the care which former editors have bestowed, has insured their accuracy.

LEADING CASES ON SALES.

A Selection of Cases on the Law of Sales of Personal Property. With References and Citations. By C. C. LANGDELL, Dane Professor of Law in Harvard University.

"We have before noticed Professor Langdell's Selection of Cases on the Law of Contracts. The present work is on the same plan.

"For those students who desire to know what the fundamental principles of law are, and the method in which they have been worked out and applied, we know no work to which we would sooner recommend them.

"We have said that these books were mainly

MAY'S LAW

intended to be useful to students; but if there are any practising lawyers who still have the time and taste to read law,' we can promise them that they will find no legal study more delightful than that of tracing the history of opinion through the pages of these books. . . . To understand fully how good these books are, the reader must be a pretty good lawyer himself."-American Law Review.

A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON THE LAW OF
COVENANTS FOR TITLE.

By WILLIAM HENRY RAWLE. Fourth Edition, revised and enlarged.

In the preparation of this edition every line has been carefully considered, and every authority reconsulted. Much of it has been written over,-in particular, the introduction, the chapter on "the usual covenants," on the covenant against encumbrances, on covenants running with the land, and as to their operation by way of estoppel or rebutter. The subject of the measure of damages has been considered separately, and a new chapter has been added,-"The jurisdiction of equity as to covenants for title." It is believed that the treatise now correctly represents the present state of the law in England and in America.
