Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Principles of the Law Relating to Marine Insurance and General Average in England and America, Alphabetically Arranged: With Occasional References to French and German Law
To enter upon a new field of legal literature is a step which cannot be taken without considerable misgivings; and I think timidity on the part of an author would be excusable even were there no beacons in existence to warn him of the dangers and difficulties which must attend his enterprise. At the time when I conceived the design which I have now executed, I was impressed with the laborious and difficult nature of the work, and this impression certainly did not diminish as the work progressed, and my leisure time became more limited.
