RITSON: Joseph Ritson, a Critical Biography 1916
1916. 224p. by Henry Alfred Burd
The work presents a comprehensive examination of the historical development of a court, detailing its name, antiquity, nature, and current state through an "Introduction" that is both antiquarian and impersonal. Accompanied by an "Analysis" consisting of thirteen annotated chapters, it explores the officers and functions of the court, alongside precedents of presentments and judgments in Leet. The book has been well-received in the legal profession for its valuable insights, despite the author's initial hesitations about public interest and the potential challenges of publication.
