In den Warenkorb8vo, pp. viii, 476, [4 (index)]; woodcut headpieces and initials; slightly toned, otherwise very good; nineteenth-century black pebbled roan, spine lettered in gilt, gilt turn-ins and edges, marbled endpapers; spine sunned, joints and extremities rubbed; ticket of Stevens and Haynes 'law publishers, booksellers & exporters' of L…ondon to front endpaper; stamps (including one marking it as withdrawn) of the Middle Temple Library on front and rear free endpapers, title-page, p. iii, and final page of index.First English translation of the parts of Christian V's Danske Lov of 1683 that were relevant to the inhabitants of the Danish West Indies (the present-day U.S. Virgin Islands, plus the islands of St Thomas, St John, and St Croix). The publisher explains that much of the original is omitted, including the whole of the second book, which had dealt with canon law, and anything that only applied to the territories of Denmark and Norway. 'The inserting of them would only have swelled the volume, without any real emolument to the English inhabitants of the Danish Territories in America The numbers of the articles, for uniformity, are continued in order, tho' articles are omitted; it might have been better to have followed the numerical order of the original; but as it seldom happens, and the articles omitted will be perhaps scarce ever found of any use in America, the inconvenience cannot be great.' ESTC T200850 ('In this issue, p. 106 misnumbered 06; pp. 59, 91 numbered correctly'); Sabin 18501.Sabin 18501.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition. 8vo. Contemporary calf, red morocco label to spine, gilt, book plate to front pastedown, a little rubbed. viii, 476, [4]pp. London, N. Gibson, A very good copy. After numerous attempts to establish a colony in the West Indies, in 1754 Christian V purchased St. Croix from the French formally establishing a royal D…anish Colony. A compendium of laws relating to their governance was issued almost immediately and this is the first English translation. In the preliminary advertisement the translator notes that he has "omitted the Second Book entirely; and in the other Books several Articles . peculiar to Denmark and Norway respectively . [not providing] any real Emolument to the English Inhabitants of the Danish Territories in America." Divided into five books, the first deals with the judiciary, the next to civil and domestic affairs, the fourth to maritime affairs (including shipwreck), the fifth to property and possessions and the sixth to criminal cases.
