Produktbeschreibung
Although judicial decisions will always remain prime sources of legal history, as well as of law, the other body of legal thought and practice is equally 'law' in that it influences lawyers and has real consequences.

Through his work with primary documents the author shows that this informal source of law is too important to go unnoticed by legal historians and commentators.
