New. $49.95 * Immediately acclaimed as one of the most important contributions to European legal history, Felony and Misdemeanor has a broader scope than its title suggests. Grounded in social and political history, it is a study of the legal institutions of the Frankish Empire, Normandy and pre-conquest England and their contributions to the formation of Anglo-American private law, public law and judicial administration. In a 1938 review for the Harvard Law Review, Max Radin said it was "a first-rate achievement" (51:1465). Complete in itself, this work was intended to have a second volume, which was never published.
