The Publications of the Selden Society V1 (1887)

The Publications of the Selden Society V1 (1887) is a book that contains a collection of legal documents and historical records from the Middle Ages. The Selden Society, a learned organization dedicated to the study of legal history, published this volume as the first in a series of publications. The documents included in this book cover a wide range of legal topics, including land ownership, inheritance, and the administration of justice. The book is a valuable resource for historians, legal scholars, and anyone interested in the legal history of England. The Selden Society is named after John Selden, a 17th-century English jurist and legal historian. The society was founded in 1887 and has since published numerous volumes of historical legal documents and scholarly works. This first volume of the society's publications includes an introduction by the editor, Frederic William Maitland, a prominent legal historian of the time.
