Attractive smyth-sewn navy blue cloth with gilt stamped red labels on spine and front cover. New. $65. * A definitive legal history charting the complex jurisprudence of naval warfare and neutral trade leading up to the tipping point of 18th-century global conflict. Kulsrud traces the evolution of customary laws and maritime codes away from the medieval Consolato del Mare-which favored belligerents-toward the modern doctrine of "free ships make free goods."
