2012. ISBN-13: 9781616192693. ISBN-10: 1616192690. "Clearly Entitled to Rank Among the Classics" Wheaton, Henry. Elements of International Law: with a Sketch of the History of the Science. Originally published: Philadelphia: Carey, Lea & Blanchard, 1836. xiv, 375 pp. Reprinted 2012 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781616192693. ISBN-10: 1616192690. Paperback. New. $29.95 * Written when the author was a diplomat posted in Berlin, this distinguished treatise went through several American and English editions, and several more in French, Italian, Spanish and Chinese. A standard work during the nineteenth century, an edition was published in England as late as 1936. "Mr. Wheaton's early familiarity with the jurisprudence and foreign relations of the United States, his long experience in diplomacy, his intimate acquaintance with European languages and foreign diplomatic writers, entitles his writings upon International Law to more than ordinary consideration. His works enjoy the highest reputation for the soundness of their views, and the learning and research displayed in illustrating the various topics discussed." --J.G. Marvin, Legal Bibliography (1847) 728. "(A)n excellent work...Indisputably the best of its kind in the English language." --James Reddie, Inquiries into International Law (1842) 106. "On his own merits Wheaton is clearly entitled to rank among the classics. Like Grotius, he embodied a happy combination of profound scholarship with a wide experience of diplomatic and public life, and his work further resembles that of Grotius in that it cannot be classified under the conventional labels of any doctrinal system. His insistence upon the fundamental principles of natural law is balanced by his analysis of practice as an immediate source of positive law." H.A. Smith, Law Quarterly Review 307-308. HENRY WHEATON [1785-1848] was a justice of the Marine Court of New York City, a member of the New York State constitutional convention of 1821, a one-term representative to the New York State Assembly and a high-level diplomat who served in Denmark and Prussia. An important legal writer, he was the reporter of the U.S. Supreme Court from 1816 to 1827 and the author of several notable treatises, including A History of the Law of Nations in Europe and America (1838) and An Enquiry into the Validity of the British.

And yet there are those who love it!" --Daniel Webster, Oral Argument, March 10, 1818, Dartmouth College v. Woodward Dartmouth College v. Woodward (1816-1819) established significant precedents concerning state authority and the nature of private enterprise. Dartmouth College was incorporated under a royal charter in 1769 as a private corporation. In 1816 the New Hampshire Legislature attempted to transform the college into a state institution. Daniel Webster, representing the college trustees, convinced the U.S. Supreme Court that the royal charter was a contract that could not be invalidated by subsequent state legislation. The court concurred. Its decision initiated a significant constitutional limitation on state authority. It also helped to define corporations as relatively unregulated private economic entities that contributed to the public sphere through enlightened self-interest. Shirley offers a vivid account of the case, enriched by extensive quotation of primary archival sources. Reprint of the first edition. "The complete history of the Dartmouth college case is very curious and deserves more than a passing notice. Until within three years it is not too much to say that it was quite unknown, and its condition is but little better now. In 1879 John M. Shirley published a volume entitled the 'Dartmouth College Causes' which is a monument of careful study and thorough research. Most persons would conclude that it was a work of merely legal interest, appealing to a limited class of professional readers. Even those into whose hands it chanced to come have probably been deterred from examining it as it deserves by the first chapter, which is very obscure, and by the confusion of the narrative which follows. Yet this monograph, which has so unfortunately suffered from a defective arrangement of material, is of very great value, not only to our legal and constitutional history, but to the.
