Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description:
This hugely influential work of 1861 is probably the one for which Sir Henry Maine (1822–88) is best remembered. Published at a time when the evolution of institutions as well as of species was a topic of widespread interest, it remains a landmark work in the intellectual history of jurisprudence.
About the Author:
Maine was educated at Christ's Hospital and Pembroke College, Cambridge. In 1847 he was professor of civil law at Cambridge. In 1850, he was called to the Bar and he was a Member of the Indian Council for seven years.
