Comment on Book Review – Lone Star Law: A Legal History of Texas by Dorothy LaBarbera (@DotsDash)

While researching my Texas family I realized the need for knowledge of the law in Texas history. This review helped me decide that this title may be a good source for knowledge of historical context for our family events. (Reading a judge’s strong personal comments led me to believe that the courts were emotionally charge in Texas during Reconstruction.)

A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.
There’s no doubt that that you need to write more on this subject, it may not be a taboo matter but typically people do not talk about such issues. To the next! Cheers!!

I am taking a summer school class in Global Perspectives so my year of high school is easier, and on my final review guide it asks what are the types of map projections. Our teacher already collected our books, so i was wondering if anyone knew what they were and could help me. Thanks alot!!

Comment on Globalization: A Very Short Introduction (second edition) by Manfred B. Steger by Reader

I do not agree. Steger gives a very wide introduction to the topic. A light standpoint on the side of justice globalism shines thru though. Which after having all the knowledge of it, seems evident. It’s a very good book to start understanding the process of globalization.

Comment on Book Review – To Put Asunder: The Laws of Matrimonial Strife by James

James — Tue, 07 Aug 2012 17:55:26 +0000

This is a very nice review! I’d just like to clarify and add a few things.

The bibliography on pages 29-36 you mention isn’t actually the book’s bibliography, but rather a list of the major reference sources to family law and divorce proceedings in early English and American legal references which readers and researchers had to hunt and pick for materials, writings, and cases on the subject. The fact that information on the subject was so disorganized, being spread across all those books, spurred the creation of this book! Really, the five appendices you mention are the first attempt to provide an organized family law bibliography of English-American family law literature and reported cases.

Also, this is the only book that supplies the history and literary references to Family Law in general, and more specifically to the literature and development of divorce law in Western legal history. The last book on this subject was written over 20 years ago, and it only dealt narrowly with family law in England from 1530 to 1987, paying minimal attention to the effects and impact of Henry VIII and to the writings of Henry Swinburne.

And it’s the first and only book to identify the history of early U.S. Colonial Family Law, and to identify how Tapping Reeve and the Litchfield Law School influenced the growth of American Family Law in the U.S. prior to the 19th century.
