De Legibus et Consuetudinibus Angliae [The Laws and Customs of England] is the first treatise on English law. A systematic work, it emphasizes the separation of procedural and substantive matters and also cites cases as sources of at least intellectual, if not formal, authority. In Maitland's words, Bracton's Legibus is "the crown and flower of English medieval jurisprudence" and "by far the greatest of our medieval law books." Sweet & Maxwell adds that it "is distinguished by rich casuistic details, and by the careful reproduction of the judicial decisions on individual cases of law.": Sweet & Maxwell, A Legal Bibliography of the British Commonwealth 1:51(6). The pagination of the 1569 and 1640 issues is identical. Maitland, Collected Works II:43.

La Graunde Abridgement, Collect & Escrie per le Iudge Tresreverend Syr Robert Brooke Chivalier, Nadgairs Chiefe Iustice del Co…mmon Banke. [And] La Secounde Part du Graunde Abridgement.

With a New Introduction and Table of Corrections by David J. Seipp, Professor of Law, Boston University. ISBN-13: 9781584779711. ISBN-10: 1584779713. Two volumes (10" x 14"). Hardcover. New. $450. * Reprint of first edition, with a new introduction and table of corrections of marginal citations by David J. Seipp. There are over 21,000 entries in Brooke's Abridgement. In the Table of Corrections of Marginal Citations Professor Seipp identifies and corrects numerous mistakes in reign, year, or folio created in error by Tottell's type-setters or Brooke's pen. Sir Robert Brooke [d.1558] was renowned for his great learning and probity as a judge. His Abridgement is based on Fitzherbert's Abridgement, but it contains much new material. In all, Brooke abridged nearly 21,000 cases and digested them alphabetically under 404 headings. It abridges fully the Year Books of Henry VII and Henry VIII. Brooke proceeded with great care and accuracy, and is believed to have had access to the original records of the Year Books. Coke calls the Abridgement "a worthy and painful work and an excellent repertory or table for the Year Books of the Law" (cited in Marvin's Legal Bibliography 151-152).

New. $495. * "Thomas Ashe published in 1614 the first detailed subject-matter index of the Year Books, statutes, and early treatises and nominate case reports of English common law. For more than a century, English lawyers had been able to use printed abridgements that lumped the growing body of English case law under 251, 263, or 394 headings in alphabetical order. This still left them searching among what might be hundreds of case excerpts under a single heading. Ashe's two-volume work, which he titled Promptuarie, ou Repertory Generall de les Annales, listed or cross-referenced citations to these legal sources not only under 759 headings, but also under at least 22,527 subheadings. No one had previously dissected the whole of English common law in such a thorough, orderly manner. Ashe produced a magnificent finding aid for England's early common law. He cited Year Book cases that had been categorized in none of the abridgements. But because he did not provide excerpts from his sources under his thousands of topical headings and subheadings, only citations, and because the wording of his subheadings avoided definitive statements of law, Ashe and his Promptuarie have been far less well known than the earlier and later abridgements, and the digests and legal encyclopedias that have succeeded them." --David J. Seipp, Introduction, III.

As frequently used and cited by lawyers as the abridgments of Fitzherbert and Brooke, Rolle used subheadings to further refine the classification of common law. "[Rolle] marks a new departure in the literature of abridgments. The older abridgments had simply digested Year Book cases under alphabetical headings. Their great defect was the heterogeneous character of the entries collected under each alphabetical head. (.) Rolle's Abridgment to some extent remedied this defect--each topic was divided.into separate headings. But what distinguishes it more markedly from the abridgments of the older type is the fact that it is more than a digest of case law. It contains summaries both of Parliamentary records and of statutes; And therefore it comes nearer than the old abridgments came to being a digest of the whole law. For both these reasons it was long a model to future makers of abridgments. (.) [Hale's Preface] is a valuable historical summary of the development of the common law up to the time of the Restoration.": Holdsworth, A History of English Law V:376-77. Sweet & Maxwell, A Legal Bibliography of the British Commonwealth 1:19.
