The Common Law Of Kent Or The Customs Of Gavelkind - Thomas Robinson - Bog

The Common Law of Kent or the Customs of Gavelkind: With the Decisions Concerning Borough-English is a book written by Thomas Robinson in 1858. The book is a comprehensive study of the legal system of Kent, England, and the customs and practices of gavelkind, a system of land tenure that was unique to Kent. The book also covers the legal concept of borough-English, which pertains to the inheritance of property by the youngest son in some parts of England. The author provides a detailed analysis of the legal principles and practices of these two systems, including their historical development, the rules governing land tenure and inheritance, and the various legal cases that have shaped their interpretation over time. The book is an important resource for scholars of English legal history, as well as anyone interested in the customs and practices of Kentish society during the medieval and early modern periods.A New Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
