Lawyers and Laymen: Studies in the History of Law presented to Professor Dafydd Jenkins (ISBN 0708309259) This collection of studies and edited texts is being offered to Professor Dafydd Jenkins as an appreciation of his contribution to the study of legal history and especially of Welsh medieval law. This contribution lies not only in his own published works but in the constant support which he has given to younger scholars over many years. The volume falls into two parts. The first part is concerned with a principal area of Welsh medieval law, Suretyship. The second contains studies on a wider variety of topics including Welsh, English, and European legal history. `The volume, while dealing with matters of legal history, is not addressed exclusively to legal historians. Its chief use must be for those scholars who require a knowledge of legal matters while addressing wider historical issues.' (British Book News) Click here for more information

The Welsh Law of Women (ISBN 070830771X) Out of stock. 'Print on demand'. This volume provides a detailed and documented account of one of the most illuminating sections of a Celtic system of law. Since the Welsh lawyers were intensely practical in their approach to the law, it has been possible to show not only the archaic elements which the Welsh law has in common with other Indo-European systems, but also the adaptations made by the jurists as Welsh society became more sophisticated and the way in which principles of Welsh law were applied in the lordships of the March after the Statute of Wales.
