Chitty was one of the most wide-ranging and prolific legal writers of the nineteenth-century. This treatise and an edition of Beawes's Lex Mercatoria (1813) were his two contributions to international law. Marvin's Legal Bibliography, though critical of the Practical Treatise, finds merit in the digests of Sir William Scott's judgments in prize cases (190). It also provides interesting insights into Anglo-American trade relations at the onset of the War of 1812. John M. Clayton [1796-1856], the former owner of this copy, was a Delaware lawyer and senator. He had a keen interest in international affairs and served as U.S. Secretary of State from 1849-1850 under presidents Taylor and Fillmore. Cohen, Bibliography of Early American Law 7167. Boston, 1812. Only Am. ed. from London ed. (1812) (illustrator).
