Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commercial Law Cases, Vol. 1 of 2 The object of this book is to furnish material which, in the hands of a competent instructor, shall be adequate for a two years course in commercial law in institutions of collegiate rank. To this end, the authors have attempted to combine the advantages of the text book and case systems, and have attempted further to eliminate some of the disadvantages of each. The text presents to the student the fundamental principles of each subject in such form that he may appreciate the relation of the cases to each other and to the whole; the cases have been so summarized and abstracted as to reduce to a minimum the tedious verbiage upon which the student ordinarily wastes time. In order to accomplish this result within a limited number of pages, the authors have been obliged to assume competent instruction, or, in its absence, such general familiarity with the subject matter by the student that he can appreciate what subjects have been exhaustively covered and what subjects are less completely represented. While the main topics in every branch treated have been at least touched upon, it has been necessary to confine within the scope of two volumes material which in the ordinary law school instruction requires at least twelve. Obviously, every branch of every subject cannot be completely set forth. With this difficulty in view, the authors have not lost sight of the main elements and fundamental principles, yet have been obliged to treat conflicts in minor rules as of secondary importance. More space and minuteness of detail have been given to the discussion of the law of contracts than to any other branch, since experience shows that a proportionately longer period devoted to the first and fundamental subject in commercial law results in a quicker and surer grasp of the derivative principles of subjects subsequently treated. The relative space occupied in this volume by the law of contracts represents to the authors minds the relative time which should be spent upon that subject in any course on commercial law. It may be thought that a text purporting to cover two years work should comprise other branches of the law in addition to those here represented: Contracts, Sales, Agency, Negotiable Instruments, Partnership and Corporations.
