Rev. 256 (1926).Available at: http://scholarship.law.marquette.edu/mulr/vol10/iss4/18MARQUETTE LAW REVIEWThe book contains one hundred and thirty-eight chapters and is well indexed.The text is supported and supplemented by a quite liberal citation of authorities,consisting largely of the leading or ruling cases, or those showing recent expansionor modification of the law to meet the conditions of modern times. Many of theseare digested in the text or notesWhile the book was written primarily for the use of bankers, business menand students, it has also appealed strongly to busy lawyers as a convenient deskbook of first resort on commercial questions, and an edition has been prepared uni-form in binding with Judge Leonard Jones' well known work, "Legal Forms," foruse in connection therewith.A recent review of Mr. Spencer's book in substance says: "The publishers havemade no mistake in the selection of a law writer who has in this work given topresent day readers as well as to posterity, a book of great value. It contains nodead wood, but a vast fund of legal knowledge which, supported by copious notes,may safely be examined in the absence of competent counsel. It is the most com-plete and comprehensive book that has yet been published on the subject of businesslaw. If every banker and business man will keep a copy on his desk for readyreference, he will avoid a great many of the pitfalls he would otherwise stumbleinto."As a teacher of law for many years Mr. Spencer has taught business menas well as lawyers. Naturally, therefor, he has produced a book of great valueto students. A University Edition is in preparation for schools having extendedcourses in commercial science. Students at law, particularly those des'ring generalreview, or those preparing for the bar, will find this book particularly helpfuland it will remain a useful tool in their hands when they enter practice.MAX SCHOETz, Ja.Helm on Contracts. Central Book Company, New York City.pp. 580.Every line of literary endeavor occasionally results in books which deserve tosurvive not because of their intrinsic value but because of some extrinsic factsuch as the utter silliness of their presentation or the frankly illegitimate aim ob-viously and openly pursued. It may be said of the present volume that its pre-sentation is very well adapted to its particular purpose.According to the preface the book is a second edition the first edition havingbeen published in 1914. Its success has induced the author to include all the casescovered by Keener and Williston and according to the prospectus sent out bythe publishers the leading cases from Corbin's, Costigan's and Huffcut and Wood-ruff's casebooks. The usefulness or at least the use of the book has thus beenextended. No matter which of these five case books a teacher adopts, the studenteager to evade the hard task of growing strong by wrestling with the cases them-selves, will find the book a convenient aid in achieving his aim. A table of casesenables him readily to turn to the page on which any particular case is briefed.Certainly such a book is preferable to the ordinary type of typewritten or mim-eographed brief in which an underground traffic has always existed in probablyall law schools. Such briefs in the past have usually been made by unripe lawstudents just as bootleg liquor is made by novices and besides frequently missingthe point completely, very often have contained much incompetent irrelevant andimmaterial matter. The present book is written by a lawyer of about ten yearsBOOK REVIEWSstanding (judging by the time when the first edition was published) and neces-sarily avoids many of the pitfalls into which law students walk with the non-chalance of a new born bear. The matter contained in it lends itself readily tocomparatively effortless assimilation by students bent on resisting knowledge. Thebook should prove to be a real bonanza to the mental weakling who aspires to buildup his mental self on predigested mental breakfast food.The prospectus sent out broadcast by the publisher actually claims for thevolume that it is "the most unique method of treating the fundamenal principalsand the history of the law of Contracts ever compiled for law students." Thisclaim is true to this extent that the book carries a certain practice in vogue amongthe leisure loving type of law student, farther than has heretofore been attempted.The fact that the author in his preface earnestly recommends to the student firstcarefully to read and digest the decisions before turning to his own treatment andstates that his digest is merely intended to recall the line of reasoning pursuedby the court, not to supplant a study of the cases itself, will not correct the viewpoint with which law students will approach the book. Even his citation from thepreface to Keener's Second Edition, correct as it is, will not accomplish any suchresult. The author indeed renders life service to the case book system of in-struction.It should not be understood by what has just been said that the book will notserve, to some extent at least, a valuable purpose. It suggests to the teacher ofContracts valuable hypothetical situations and gives him ready access to the caseswhich have been recognized by five different legal authors as worthy of beingincluded in a case book on Contracts. The graduate student who reviews for thebar is presented with a digest which he can use to very good effect. Even the firstyear law student possibly may use the book as a help in his difficulties ratherthau as a pony on which (mixing metaphors) to ride across the famous pons asi-norum which even the old Romans recognize as an existing and ever present fact.The only question is: will he use it legitimately or will he yield to the temptationwhich is held out to him. Even in this field so far as the present work will drivethe present day inane, silly and pointless briefs off their questionable market itwill accomplish a real beneficent purpose.The publication of this work and the wide publicity already given to it raises thequestion: what is to become of our present case book system of instruction? If thevolume has the financial success which the publisher doubtlessly anticipates will itnot reduce all pretense of teaching Contracts by the case book method to a farce sofar at least as a part of probably every Contract class in the land is concerned.If the book is commercially successful, as it probably will be if the authorsand publishers of case books raise no objection to it, will it not result in othersimilar books on Corporation, Constitutional Law, Persons and on all the othercustomary courses now given by the various law schools? What then is to becomeof the system of instruction originated by Langdell and now so universally adopted?Will the law schools be driven back to the text book method or the lecture methodor to a combination of all the various methods? Will eventually the restatement ofthe law, now undertaken by the American Law Institute, be the basis of all in-struction just as the code of Justinian is the basis of legal study on the continentof Europe?The prospectus contains a statement that the book "includes 2,oo supposititiouscases of inestimable value for classroom work and in preparing for law schooland bar examinations." An inspection of the book discloses that it contains 58oMARQUETTE LAW REVIEWpages. Accordingly, each page must average nearly four hypothetical cases. Ingoing cursorily through the book the reviewer has found but few pages whichcontain four or more hypothetical cases and has found many pages which containnone. The claims for 2ooo hypothetical cases therefore would seem to be somewhatexaggerated. However such cases as are included are frequently very good indeedbeing probably those used when the author took his class room instruction inContracts.The author pays a tribute to the memory of Professor Charles Thaddeus Terryunder whom he studied Contracts at Columbia University, and states that the bookwas developed out of his work on the subject while a student. He says that ifhe has handed on only a fair conception of the unexcelled methods of this instruc-tor to present day teachers and students he will feel well repaid for his labor.The reviewer very seriously doubts whether Professor Terry, if he were livingtoday, would appreciate this compliment. Certainly Mr. Terry must have con-templated as the very foundation of his course an adequate preparation madepersonally by his students not made for them by some outsider.Numerous references are made to Professor Williston's text book on Contracts.In fact lengthy extracts taken from this legal classic are found throughout thebook. The reviewer has found no statement that the consent of Mr. Willistonwas obtained for the use of this material. The title page contains the statementthat the book is a digest of cases contained in Keener and Williston's case booksand leading cases from other case books on contracts. It appears from the pros-pectus sent out by the publishers that these other casebooks are those of Corbin,Costigan and Huffcut and Woodruff. Again no statement has been discoveredthat the consent of these writers was obtained for the use made of the materialwhich they had collected. In fact it is inconceivable that their consent would beforthcoming for such a purpose.No good purpose can be gained by attempting either to suppress the book orto kill it by silence. Such students as want crutches will find out about it bythe various subterranean channels through which such information travels and willinvest in it either their own hard earned dollars or the money which comes easilyto them from their parents. Some will use it legitimately, just as denatured alco-hol may find a legitimate use in the radiator of an automobile in cold weather.The great majority however, of those who invest, will invest in the spirit of thebuyer of illicit liquor-to defeat the purposes of an unpopular restriction. On thewhole this pony, for that is what it will be used for by the great majority of itsreaders, will do far more harm than good. Its appearance is to be regretted fromevery just viewpoint.C. Z.Letters to a Young Lawyer. By Arthur M. Harris. West Pub-lishing Company, St. Paul.To the young lawyer just emerged from the cocoon of studenthood and standingwith wings spread at the threshold of professional life, many serious problemsare presented. Where to settle, how to comport himself, with whom to associate,what standards to adopt, are only a few of the questions confronting his oftenimmature judgment and limited experience. All these problems and a multitude ofothers are ably and agreeably discussed in Mr. Harris' interesting volume.The series of letters contained in the book are ostensibly written to the son of awise old practitioner of many years' standing.

Rev. 61 (1924).Available at: http://scholarship.law.marquette.edu/mulr/vol9/iss1/15BOOK REVIEWSscope of the problem is, therefore, quite apparent. In a little book of onehundred thirty-seven pages, under the beading of Corporate Reorganization andthe Federal Court, will be found a collection of essays by Messrs. Roberts Walker,Robert T. Swaine and James N. Rosenberg which will be of great value to anyattorney confronted with a reorganization problem or who desires a start in thestudy of the subject. CARL B. RixCases on Conflict of Laws. By ERNEST G. LORENZEN. SecondEdition. St. Paul: West Publishing Co. 1924. pp. xxiii, IO96.About ten or twelve years ago one would hunt in vain in the American Digestsor Encyclopedias for a heading "Conflicts." There has been little attempt at atreatise. Story created the subject and his treatise is treated as decision. Whartonand Minor have published American works which were not very authoritative.Dicey has published an excellent work dependable for English law. The work ofBeale in this field is the modern classic.This subject is becoming more and more popular in the law school curriculum.Indeed, it is the only place in the undergraduate curriculum where the majorityof law students gain any elementary knowledge of jurisprudence; and thoughto-day there is'a growing demand for graduate studies, for some considerabletime the law student's only point of contact ,%ith the science of jurisprudencewill be through this subject.At the outset it seems worthy of notice that Professor Lorenzen has done agreat deal in his case book, in both editions, but particularly in this recent one, toopen the course to a wider variety of students. The mechanical make-up of thenotes and their content makes available much material really of comparative law,and renders it practicable for students who have not taken certain substantivesubjects; for example, future interests, to study the problems of conflicts. Thesubstantive law of the various jurisdictions involved is briefly stated in the notesand facilitates and invites the student who might otherwise not attempt the course.The subject matter of the course is well presented. The arrangement of thetopics might be somewhat changed but the author's arrangement is, in the main,logical and for teaching purposes a very convenient one. The subject itself hasbeen the football of jurists and there is a wide divergence of views as toelementary principles. With all these views the author attempts to do justice.The three theories of conflicts, the Statutist Theory, the Theory of Private Inter-national Law, and the Postivist Theory (6r the Theory of Vested Rights) areall illustrated, not only with the standard leading cases but with the most modernapplications, together with a wealth of reference to articles by distinguishedjurists on special phases of the subject. The historical development of thesubject together with the influence of various schools of thought (see for instanceon page 8, the development of the Statutist Theory and the influence of the DutchSchool) and the influence of the Civil Law and its present trend and importanceare set down very clearly and attractively. The line as to what is substantive andwhat is procedural is indicated in a very excellent manner by a series of caseswhich contain several very modern citations. The book as a case book for students'use is particularly well done and by its selection arrangement and representation ofsubject matter is well calculated not only to hold but intrigue the interest of thestudent and prompt him to enter more fully into the study of jurisprudence itself.The citations are all given not only with reference to the state reports but alsoto the reporter systems. It is to be regretted that the new plan of the West Pub-62 MARQUETTE LAW REVIEWlishing Company to also add key number citations was not employed in this casebook. It would have rendered accessible much material which, from the nature ofthis subject, must otherwise remain unaccessible.JOHN McDILL FoxBooks ReceivedFinancial Organization and Management.
