Law's Machinery

Reforming the Craft of Lawyering in America's Industrial Age

Beschreibung

Often overlooked by histories of the world's famous code systems, mid-nineteenth century America settled on a code of practice that elevated lawyers as the dominant force of the country's legal institutions. Law's Machinery draws on innovative methods in digital legal history and offers a sweeping intellectual, cultural, and political account of the modernization of American legal practice.
