Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a deep dive into the foundation of American law, tracing its roots back to the ancient customs of the Anglo-Saxons and the influence of the Roman legal system. The author delves into the evolution of English law from its early, often brutal, modes of trial to the development of the jury system, a cornerstone of the legal system in both England and America. You'll gain an understanding of how the common law, a system based on judicial precedents, has shaped our legal landscape. The author explores the historical context of significant events, such as the Norman conquest, the Magna Carta, and the gradual shift from custom to legislative decrees, providing a nuanced perspective on the development of legal principles. By exploring the dynamic interplay between custom, adjudication, and legislation, the book illuminates the inherent complexities of how our legal system has evolved and continues to operate. The book's insightful examination of English legal history provides a fascinating and informative journey into the origins of American law.
