Gerard, James W[atson] [1823-1900]. Logan, Edgar, Editor. Hill, Edward B[ruce], Editor. A Digested Treatise and Compendium of Law Applicable to Titles to Real Estate in the State of New York. Revised and Enlarged. Giving All the Code and Statute Changes, With Notes of Decisions. Third edition, "revised and enlarged." New York: Baker, Voorhis, & Co., Law Publishers, 1889. xvi, 984 pp. Contemporary sheep, raised bands and red and black lettering pieces to spine, Baker, Voorhis & Co. bookseller ticket to front pastedown. Some rubbing, joints starting at foot, hinges cracked but secure. Toning to text, internally clean. $75. * A comprehensive guide focusing on the intricate aspects of property ownership and transfer in New York State during this era. The compiler's aim was to provide a succinct and practical treatment of the state's real estate system, which had grown "to formidable proportions" with numerous statutes appended to the 1830 revision. The writing style is necessarily "terse" to fit the subject matter into a single volume. This book served as an essential reference for legal practitioners and conveyancers dealing with real estate transactions and title searches in New York during the late 19th century.
