This volume of the ABA Classics Series is The Common Law. In the history of the law there have been many great treatises written by many great legal minds, but only a few have had the influence and staying power to truly be called the classics. The Common Law by famed Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. is certainly one of these books.
First published in 1881, The Common Law has retained its relevance through the elegant writing of Justice Holmes and the sound, thorough coverage of everything from criminal law to possession and ownership to torts. As Professor Stephen L. Carter says in his new foreword to the book, "Few books have had this lasting influence on a profession, and earned as profound a reputation within it."
An essential reference for lawyers, laymen and students alike, these extraordinary books are an elegant addition to any home or office, and make the perfect gift. These books will provide a lifetime of enjoyment and a lasting legacy for future generations.
