Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law Relating to Contract of Sale of Goods: Six Lectures Delivered at the Request of the Council of Legal Education In the month of June 1901, I received an invitation from the Council of Legal Education, to deliver a course of six Lectures on the Law relating to the Contract of Sale of Goods. I at once acceded to the request, and, in the months of October and November following, the six Lectures were delivered in the Hall of Lincoln's Inn. During their delivery, I found that I could not treat of the whole of the law of contract of sale of goods, and could only give a bare outline of those parts with which I dealt. The general principles which underlie this portion of our law are, I think, correctly set forth. My object in delivering the Lectures was, if possible, to facilitate the study of the provisions of the Sale of Goods Act, 1893. The Lectures were not penned: they were delivered without verbal preparation, taken down in shorthand, and subsequently revised. By this method the Lecturer awakens a considerable interest in the minds of his hearers, but cannot attain to more than a substantial accuracy. I hope, however, that this result has been secured. If the Lectures were profitable when spoken (and to some extent I believe they were), I hope they will be profitable now they are in print. The Lectures are published at the instance of many who heard them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
