Selected Cases on the Law of Contracts (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Selected Cases on the Law of Contracts
The arrangement of topics follows that of Sir William Anson in his Principles of the English Law of Contracts, whose general plan has served as a model for some other treatises on the subject. This case book, however, covers some topics not dealt with in his book; and some that are treated there are not included here. Two chap ters appearing in the former editions of this book, namely, Capacity of Parties, and Impairing the Obligation of Contract, are omitted in this edition, as these are topics which are commonly discussed in the courses on Persons and Constitutional Law in the usual law school curriculum.
In many of the cases the statement of facts has, for the sake of brev ity, been either re-written or abridged, without calling special attention to the matter. For the same reason, the practice, now common, of omitting unnecessary portions of the Opinions, has been followed; but such omissions are always indicated. In this as in the preceding editions, the principal text consists of American cases, although English cases are represented in the notes and in the discussions in the Opinions.
