Originally published: New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1915. x, 234 pp. Reprinted 2010 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781616190675; ISBN-10: 1616190671. Paperback. New. $18.95 * In this work Professor Colby has gathered, annotated and arranged into a sequential history of English law numerous essays by Maitland and Montague. "These articles supplied what long had been needed for general readers and for law students-a brief but comprehensive, accurate but untechnical account of the origin and growth of English law. . . . this series of articles now forms the best available introduction to English legal history." James F. Colby, iii. Widely considered the father of legal history, Frederic William Maitland [1850-1906] was an English jurist and historian best known for the standard The History of English Law Before the Time of Edward I, 2 vols. (1895), written with Sir Frederick Pollock. He was educated at Eton and Cambridge and studied at Lincoln's Inn, London. Maitland was called to the bar in 1876, and practiced until 1884 when he became a reader in English law (1884) and professor (1888) at Cambridge. He founded the Selden Society in 1887. Hailed for his original outlook on history, his works profoundly influenced legal scholarship. An extraordinarily productive career was shortened by his death from tuberculosis at age 45. Francis C. Montague [1858-1935] was a Professor of History at University College, London and Lecturer in Modern History, Oriel College, Oxford. He was also the author of The History of England from the Accession of James I. to the Restoration (1907) and The Elements of English Constitutional History from the Earliest Times to the Present Day (1910). James F. Colby [1850-1939] taught international law at Yale Law School from 1883 until 1885. He later taught history and political economics at Dartmouth College, and was Parker Professor of Law and Political Science at Dartmouth College from 1885-1916 and lectured in jurisprudence and international law at Boston University Law School from 1905-1922. …

[Charlotte Bronte 'did not always tell the truth' and guilty of 'deceit'.] Copy of Typed Letter to E. F. Benson [from her editor John Alexander Symington], criticising her, with reference to C. W. Hatfield and T. J. Wise.

In den WarenkorbSee the various entries in the Oxford DNB. Typed carbon copy. 1p, foolscap 8vo. Text complete, on aged piece of carbon paper, worn and chipped at edges. No signature. Addressed at foot to 'E. F. Benson Esq.' Thirty-one lines of text. He begins by stating that Benson, in his 'work on Charlotte Brontë', has 'made a very correct study of her'. After discussing a point about Branwell Bronte, he states: 'We cannot rely on Charlotte's assertion that he knew nothing whatever of their ventures in publishing. I am just busy preparing the "Life and Letters" for the Shakespeare Head edition, and have found from Charlotte's letters and other associated facts that she did not always tell the truth.' She describes the 'most glaring instance', concerning 'her references to Balzac's works', and adds that there are ' other instances of deceit in her correspondence with Ellen Nussey'. In the final paragraph he states that his 'old friend Mr. C. W. Hatfield [of the Bronte Society] will not hear a wrong word about Charlotte, and pleads with me to modify my editorial notes concerning the influence of Branwell, whilst my colleagues and editorial chief T. J. Wise is quite impartial, though he would like Charlotte's reputation upheld. In consequence of this I am venturing to send you the introductory portion (in rough galley form) of Chapter XIV in "Life and Letters" which I have headed "The Influence of Branwell." I wonder if you would be good enough to look this over and give me your opinion and criticism of it.'.…
