"Undoubtedly the Most Elaborate and Complete Treatise Extant on the Elementary Principles of the Subject" Apart from James Kent, no man has had greater influence on the early development of American law than Joseph Story [1779-1845], an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, Dane Professor of Law at Harvard Law School and prolific author. Since their publication, his books have been cited extensively in America and in Britain. He remains an authority today. In The Formative Era of American Law, Roscoe Pound refers to the Commentaries on the Law of Bills of Exchange as one of the the most widely used and authoritative treatises of the nineteenth century. As Marvin pointed out in 1847, it was "undoubtedly the most elaborate and complete treatise extant on the elementary principles of the subject," one that draws on a wide range of American, English and Continental sources.

Autorenporträt
JOSEPH STORY (1779-1845), one of the most significant lawyers in early American constitutional history, became the youngest US Supreme Court Justice (1811-45) at age 32. He worked closely with Chief Justice John Marshall in developing the legal foundation for American nationalism. Story was also one of the most successful American authors of the first half of the 19th century, with several publications, including Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States and its popular abridged edition.
