The Law Of Commerce In Time Of War: With Particular Reference To The Respective Rights And Duties Of Belligerents And Neutrals by Edward James Castle. This legal treatise analyzes how war transforms commercial law governing interactions between belligerents and neutrals. It is organized to address two main concerns: the effect of hostilities on the commerce of belligerents and the effect on neutral trade. The author surveys the distinction between municipal and international law, emphasising that contracts made during war are generally illegal unless licensed by the sovereign, and that enforcement typically targets the violated property rather than the person. Central topics include declarations of war, licences, domicil, blockade, contraband, and prize law, with extensive discussion of English and American prize-court decisions, especially Lord Stowell. The work provides practical guidance for merchants and lawyers facing wartime disruptions, and seeks to articulate established rules amid evolving wartime economic practices, including the role of neutrality and the rights and duties of belligerents and neutrals in wartime commerce.
