An early entry in the spirited and lengthy public debate in Great Britain over the establishment of a general register for titles and deeds. Though the idea was first proposed under Henry VIII, no such register would be created until the passage of the Land Registry Act in 1862, which established a registry of titles (but not deeds). The system created by the act was voluntary and largely ineffective; successive attempts at reform failed until the Land Registration Act of 1925. Phillpott argues that the register will reduce fraud and anticipates a number of objections to his proposals. OCLC locates 1 copy of this title in a law library (Harvard).
