A very good copy. $125. * Later issue of the sixth and final edition. Woolsey, a professor at Yale (and later its president), was one of the founders of modern American political science. First published in 1860, this popular and well-regarded introduction to the principles of international law was revised several times to improve the text and address questions about neutral and belligerent rights raised by the American Civil War. "Although trained in the law," Woolsey "approached [this book] from the standpoint of the historian and the moralist. Written clearly, and with great fairmindedness, and penetrated with deep religious spirit, his book.has had a wide popularity and influence. It was several times reprinted in England.

Woolsey's Introduction continued to be printed into the 20th century, though it was no longer revised after the first issue of the sixth edition in 1878. "Woolsey, Theodore," International Law II:517 cited in Marke, A Catalogue of the Law Collection of New York University (1953) 585. …
