Card pocket to front pastedown. Bookplate of United States Court of Military Appeals to front free endpaper. Property stamps to rear pastedown and front endleaves otherwise internally clean. A good set. $600. Sixteenth and final edition revised enlarged and annotated and historically significant because it represents the transition from Greenleaf's seminal work which was the standard for American evidence law for half a century to the new era of evidence scholarship dominated by its editor John Henry Wigmore. Wigmore who would become one of the most influential legal scholars in American history edited the first volume of this edition just before publishing his own monumental work A Treatise on the Anglo-American System of Evidence in Trials at Common Law which began publication in 1904. Edward Avery Harriman edited volumes 2 and 3 of the edition further contributing to its status as a thoroughly revised and updated version of Greenleaf's work at the turn of the century. The 1899 edition marks a pivotal moment in the history of American legal literature on evidence where the established authority passed the torch to the scholar who would define the field for the next generation. unknown books
