Dublin: W. Sleater, And W. Colles, 1790. The First Abridgement of the Commentaries, A Copy with an Interesting Maryland Provenance Blackstone, Sir William [1723-1780]. Trusler, John [1735-1820], Editor. A Summary of the Constitutional Law of England, Being an Abridgement of Blackstone's Commentaries. Dublin: W. Sleater, No. 28, And W. Colles, No. 17, Dame-Street, 1790. [iv], 228, [8]. 12mo. (7" x 4-1/2"; 17.8 x 11.4 cm). Contemporary calf, lettering piece and gilt fillets to spine, joints reinforced.

According to the book's Advertisement, it offers "every thing in Blackstone necessary for the general reader [with] nothing omitted but what is peculiarly adapted to the profession of a Lawyer" (iii). The book went through two more editions in 1790 and 1796. This copy belonged to Zaccheus Collins Lee [1805-1859], a distinguished lawyer who served as the U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland and later as Judge of the Superior Court of Baltimore. Lee's signature is dated 1828 in Winchester, the year he studied under the influential jurist Henry St. George Tucker at the Winchester Law School. Henry St. George Tucker (Lee's teacher) was a famously devoted Blackstonian scholar whose own father, St. George Tucker, published the first major American edition of the Commentaries. All editions are scarce. OCLC locates 4 copies of the Dublin edition in North American law libraries (Harvard, Library of Congress, Trial.…
