"Intended to be an elementary treatise for beginners. . .The author
has taught the subject, both on the Continent. . .and in England. . .The
lists of treatises and monographs printed at the commencement of each
topic give a bibliography probably not accessible in any other
English treatise. The only recent work with which it can be compared
is Hall's "International Law," a book not elementary.. .The
author has a system which underlies his analysis; the best and most important
part of his system is his rule of giving his readers the law
as it is, and not as it ought to be. This, combined with his natural
international impartiality, makes his book an extremely fair and
rational one." Nation, 1906.
