Excerpt from Principles of Contract at Law and in Equity: Being a Treatise on the General Principles Concerning the Validity of Agreements, With a Special View to the Comparison of Law and Equity, and With References to the Indian Contract Act, and Occasionally to Roman, American, and Continental Law
I have not attempted to collect American authorities the ever growing bulk of English reports alone is already formidable enough to deal with. But some account has beezf given of a certain number of decisions of the Supreme Court, selected as being recent or otherwise of marked importance.
Considering the amount of coincidence (if not more than coincidence) between English and Roman law in the main principles of Contract, I have felt justified in making a pretty free use of the Roman law for purposes of illustration and analogy. I have also referred at times to modern Continental Codes, especially where it seemed that light might be thrown on a topic of special legis lation, or of what is called the policy of the law, by extending the range of observation. However no systematic comparison has been undertaken. Ou points of Roman law (and to a considerable extent, indeed, on the principles it has in common with our own), I have consulted and generally followed Savigny's great work.
