Bag om The Shipping Laws Of The British Empire
""The Shipping Laws of the British Empire"" is a comprehensive legal guidebook that provides a detailed explanation of the maritime laws and regulations that governed the British Empire in the mid-nineteenth century. It is composed of two main sections: ""Park on Marine Insurance"" and ""Abbott on Shipping."" The first section, written by James Allan Park, focuses on the legal principles and practices surrounding marine insurance, including the types of policies available, the obligations of insurers and insured parties, and the procedures for settling claims. The second section, authored by Charles Abbott, offers a detailed analysis of the laws governing the shipping industry, including the rights and responsibilities of shipowners, captains, and crews, as well as the procedures for resolving disputes and enforcing contracts. Together, these two sections provide a comprehensive overview of the legal framework that governed the British Empire's maritime industry during the mid-nineteenth century, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of maritime law or the development of the British Empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
