The Fugitive Slave Rescue Trial of Robert Morris: Benjamin Robbins Curtis on the Road to Dred Scott. xix 120 pp. 19 illustrations. Clark New Jersey: Talbot Publishing 2013. ISBN-13: 9781616193928. ISBN-10: 1616193921. Hardcover. New. $39.95 Relying on extensive surviving original records this book analyzes the November 1851 trial in the federal circuit court of Robert Morris the second black admitted to practice in Massachusetts for rescuing a fugitive slave from the custody of the U.S. marshal in the federal courtroom in Boston. It demonstrates that Justice Benjamin Robbins Curtis a supporter of Daniel Webster and the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 presiding under a recess appointment made two critical rulings against Morris that were at odds with existing precedents. Finally the book contextualizes Morris's trial among the other trials for this rescue the prosecutions for the attempt to rescue Anthony Burns another fugitive slave in 1854 and the Supreme Court's decision in Dred Scott in 1857. "This "small" book packs a large wallop. Gordan navigates the complexities of trial advocacy and trial procedure with unexcelled mastery. His analysis of the complex legal issues including the power of the jury to rule on questions of law as well as fact is persuasive. Gordan also throws a revisionist light on some of the major players - like John P. Hale who emerges from the wings as the real leader of the abolitionist bar; and Benjamin R. Curtis whose manipulation of the law in the Morris trial illuminates his famous dissent in Dred Scott v. Sandford. A gem of a book." -- R. KENT NEWMYER University of Connecticut School of Law. "A wonderfully detailed exposition of the fugitive slave rescue trial of Robert Morris John Gordan's work unearths a wealth of material about the events the people and the legal acumen of the lawyers and judges involved. It will enable scholars to evaluate a question central to our judicial system: What is the proper division of authority between judge and jury The information contained in Gordan's book provides a much-needed historically accurate basis from which to answer that question." -- MAEVA MARCUS The George Washington University Law School. unknown‎

Originally published: Fredericksburg: Green and Cady 1814. With an introduction by Roy Franklin Nichols Yale University Press 1950. 562 pp. Reprinted 2013 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781616193201. ISBN-10: 1616193204. Paperback. New. $27.95 Taylor wrote this important work in 1814 as a reply to John Adams's Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America. Unlike Adams he rejects the concept of "a natural aristocracy" of "paper and patronage" and a federal government based on a system of debt and taxes. He considers the American government to be one of divided powers responsible to the sovereign people alone. Opposed to the extent of power awarded to the executive office he calls for shorter terms for the president and all elected officers. Charles Beard said this work "deserves to rank among the two or three really historic contributions to political science which have been produced in the United States." Originally published in 1814 this is a reprint of the 1950 Yale University Press edition with an introduction by Roy Franklin Nichols. JOHN TAYLOR 1753-1824 was known as "John Taylor of Caroline County Virginia." He served in the Continental Army and later in the Virginia House of Delegates then served three terms as a member of the United States Senate. He is considered to be one of the greatest philosophers of agrarian liberalism and was one of the first proponents of states' rights. His works include New Views of the Constitution of the United States 1823 Construction Construed and Constitutions Vindicated 1820 and A Defence of the Measures of the Administration of Thomas Jefferson By Curtius 1804.

"This well-written and thoroughly researched book is essential reading for anyone interested or involved in property law or in English legal history. The main text and the footnotes both contain fascinating information. Mark Wonnacott's book throws illuminating shafts of light on the political economic social and religious history of this country as well as its legal history." --LORD NEUBERGER OF ABBOTSBURY M.R. Who has not been a landlord or a tenant It is one of the most common legal relationships between people and has been since the medieval period. But there is very little academic interest in the law of landlord and tenant. Nobody before has attempted to write its history. This book shows how the rules on each point of importance have developed. Sometimes it demonstrates how a wrong turn has been taken or an important principle forgotten. But its practical use is to provide the material for understanding the old cases and to put those cases in their proper context; for it is hard for any lawyer advising on a doubtful point to say where exactly we are now without a thorough understanding of what the law once was and how and when it might have changed. Mark Wonnacott is a barrister at Maitland Chambers in Lincoln's Inn London specialising in property litigation. If it is attached to the ground he litigates about it and the dustier corners of land law are his particular favourite. He was counsel for the successful appellant in Berrisford v. Mexfield Housing Co-operative Ltd. 2011 UKSC 52 which revived the rule that a tenancy for an uncertain term is a defeasible lease for life. When not in court or writing law-books he is collecting or repairing them or trying to learn Italian without much success or appreciating wine with somewhat more success.
