Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summary of the Law of Torts: Or, Wrongs Independent of Contract The fact that five Editions of this Work have been sold, and that an American firm have thought it worth their while to issue an unauthorized edition in the United States, renders it no longer necessary to apologize for its existence. Many of my friends and clients have expressed surprise that an Equity and Conveyancing Counsel should have written a Treatise on the Law of Torts. The answer is, that every lawyer, whatever his speciality may be, ought to know the principles of every branch of the law; and, in my student days, my endeavours to fathom the principles of the Law of Torts were surrounded with so much unnecessary difficulty, owing to the absence of any text-book separating principle from illustration, that I became convinced that a new crop of students would welcome even such a guide as I was capable of furnishing. The result has proved that I was not mistaken. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
