A Scarce English-Language Edition of "The Best Elementary Book" Written Before Blackstone's Commentaries Finch, Sir Henry [1558-1625]. A Description of the Common Laws of England, According to the Rules of Art, Compared with the Prerogatives of the King. With the Substance and Effect of the Statutes (Disposed in their Proper Places) by Which the Common Law is Abridged, Enlarged, Or Any Ways Altered, From the Commencement of Magna Charta, Anno 9 H.3. Until this Day. Originally Written in French, And Now First Translated into English, With Variety of References to both the Ancient and Modern Reports, And Occasional Remarks where the Law has Been Altered by later Resolutions, Or Acts of Parliament, With Many Useful Observations also on Various Points of Law. London: Printed for A. Millar, In the Strand, 1759. [iv], viii, [4], 463, [1] pp. Octavo (8-1/4" x 5"). Contemporary calf, blind rules to boards, blind tooling along joints, raised bands and faint hand-lettered title in early hand to spine, blind tooling to board edges. Light rubbing and a few shallow scuffs to boards, chipping to spine ends, front board beginning to separate but secure, corners bumped and somewhat worn, rear hinge starting.
