Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the English Constitution, Vol. 1 of 2 The History of the Constitution of England has hitherto only been written with regard to the Middle Ages, and separate centuries since the Reformation. In venturing to draw a picture of the thousand years' Constitutional History of such a nation, I must necessarily begin with an apology in order to explain the shortcomings and inequalities of my work, and in some measure to justify them in the eyes of the benevolent reader. My writings upon the English Constitution did not originate in a uniform scientific plan; my Roman law professorship offered few points of connection with this subject, although I am much indebted, in these writings, to the works upon the history of Law of my revered teacher, von Savigny. It was rather the efforts for reform in the German legal procedure which gave rise to these essays. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Popular Sketch of the Origin and Development of the English Constitution, Vol. 2: From the Earliest Period to the Present Time; From the Accession of James I. To the Present Period The concluding chapter on the Law of Property and Jurisprudence generally, will naturally be omitted by most readers of the preceding pages. But while the criticism of professional brethren is respectfully deprecated, at so humble an attempt to popularise a peculiarly technical subject; it is yet submitted in recommendation of these remarks to the general reader, that no political view of the history of a country would be complete without some idea of the modes, in which private rights were acquired, held, and defended. While it might be added that in no other book at present in print could be found in so compendious a form the pith of the subtle learning of the Conveyancer together with a clear and popular view of the existing jurisdiction of our several Courts, and the real or intended improve ments generally passing under the name of Law Reform.
