Reprint of the first edition. At the time of its publication there
were other popular treatises on the subject in use by American
lawyers, but the particularly American viewpoint and practicality
of Benedict's treatise enabled it to surpass the others. Now in its
seventh edition, it is still the premier work on the subject. In
addition to covering American maritime law and practice in the
courts, Benedict includes comprehensive discussions of trial by
jury, the ancient jurisdiction of the English admiralty, the strife
between the Common Law Courts and the Admiralty in the 16th and
17th centuries, the English admiralty at the time of the American
Revolution; and the admiralty jurisdiction of the state courts of
admiralty, the British colonies, Scotland and Ireland, France and
other portions of Continental Europe. An appendix contains rules
for the United States Supreme Court, the United States District and
Circuit Courts and fee schedules, statutes and forms. Benedict
1800-1880], a noted lawyer and educator, was considered "one of the
foremost admiralty lawyers of his day." He developed his expertise
in admiralty law during his years as deputy clerk in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
