''Why The History Of English Law Is Not Written: An Inaugural Lecture (1888)'' is a book by Frederic William Maitland, originally delivered as a lecture in 1888. The book explores the reasons why the history of English law has not been written, despite its importance and significance. Maitland argues that there are several factors that have contributed to this lack of historical documentation, including the complexity and diversity of English law, the lack of reliable sources, and the difficulty of interpreting legal texts. He also examines the role of legal institutions and the legal profession in shaping the development of English law, and discusses the challenges faced by historians in attempting to reconstruct the history of this complex and multifaceted legal system. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of English law, legal history, and the challenges of historical research.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
