First published in 1853 this work is widely considered one of the most important and influential American legal treatises of the nineteenth century. Parsons was the Dane Professor of Law at Harvard University from 1848-1870. Like others who held the title such as Greenleaf and Story he sought to move beyond purely English precedents and create a systematic framework of American law for practitioners and students. His work played an essential role in the development of American law as a distinct body. In The Law of Contracts which reached nine editions Parsons articulated what became known as the "objective" theory of contract law which prioritized the language of a contract over its framers' intent. This theory represented an important shift for American commerce and came to dominate American contract law; The Law of Contracts itself remained influential well into the twentieth century. John Lyon Gardiner 1841-1901 was a member of an old influential and very wealthy New York family. He gave up his law practice to become the eleventh proprietor of Gardiners Island one of the largest privately owned islands in the United States.
