Details

Leather covered boards, 6.5x10 in., [16.5x25 cm.]. Volume I 1125 pp. Volume II 1253 pp.. Originally published in 1839 - the present copy an 1897 Rawle's Revision.
Condition

Backstrips of both volumes amateurly repaired, with small openings remaining along the joints where the backstrips meet the boards; pastedowns and endpapers apparently replaced, the paper stock differing from that used elsewhere in the volumes. Text blocks age-tanned; upper margins of the preface leaves marked in ink; pp. 621–622 repaired with cello tape. Covers heavily worn, with staining, abrasions, scuffing, and edgewear; backstrips marked with what appears to be paint.
Notes

Revised and enlarged edition of Bouvier’s legal dictionary, edited by Francis Rawle. Intended as both a dictionary and encyclopedic reference work, with expanded treatment of legal subjects, revised arrangement of titles, and extensive cross-referencing. Includes several hundred newly added or substantially revised topics, with particular attention to areas of law that had developed in the preceding fifteen years, together with more than four thousand additional legal words and titles. 

Notes adapted from the Preface prepared by Francis Rawle.
