Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Legal History and Miscellaneous Legal Essays It is believed that the advantages of clearness and of leaving the published lectures unchanged outweigh the disadvantage of repetition. For a similar reason several passages from the unpublished lectures have been left in the first person, though the author seldom used that construction in his published work. The Miscellaneous Essays were nearly all printed in periodicals: the "Harvard Law Review," the "Columbia Law Review," the "Yale Law Journal," and the "University of Pennsylvania Law Review." They are here reprinted by permission of these magazines. A number of corrections made by Professor Ames in his own copies of the magazines have been included. The memoir of Christopher Columbus Langdell, which included the substance of articles in the "Harvard Law Review" and the "Harvard Graduates' Magazine," was published in die work entitled "Great American Lawyers," published by the John C. Winston Co., of Philadelphia, and is here reprinted by permission of the publishers. The Memoir has been made up from a number of articles published at the time of Professor Ames's death. Permission of the "Harvard Graduates' Magazine," the "Harvard Law Review," the "Columbia Law Review," the "University of Pennsylvania Law Review," and the "Illinois Law Review," has been obtained for the use herein made of the original articles.
