Should I get the hardcover or softcover editions of Blackstone's commentaries?
>>25249819Just borrow from the library. Nobody buys commentaries.
>>25249830i'd like to own this set especially
>>25249819Why do you want to read this?
>>25249936because he wants to feel and appear intelligent, there's no legitimate reason to read these lmfao
>>25249936The prose style is really good
>>25249819If you want a solid theoretical grasp on English and Welsh law, then you need to read A.V. Dicey before anyone else. Dicey has Blackstone beat in terms of textbook tradition influence. If you actually want to learn about the current state of the law in England+Wales, then you have to widely read the law reports relevant to your chosen topic, and maybe the occasional journal. No single jurist will give you a sufficient understanding of those matters.
