A Treatise On The Law Of Marine Insurance And General Average PDF Download

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Marine Insurance and General Average, Vol. 1 of 2 O? My treatise on Maritime Law, the first volume contained the Law of Shipping. The second volume con tained the Law of Marine Insurance, and the Law of Admiralty. In preparing a new edition of this work, I found that the recent cases on the subject of Marine Insurance, and especially those on General Average in connection with Insurance, in England and in this co un try, from their number, their interest, and their effect upon those important branches of Commercial Law, made it impossible to confine the work within its former limits. I determined, therefore, after much consultation with persons in different parts of our country whose Opinions on such a question would be most valuable, to prepare a new work on the Law of Marine Insurance, founding it upon my former work, but so increasing its size as to enable me to make it as complete as I could. The result is the book now offered the public. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
