Signposts: New Directions in Southern Legal History

Series Page, Title Page, Copyright, Dedication

Studies in the Legal History of the South edited by paul finkelman and timothy s. huebner This series explores the ways in which law has affected the development of the southern United States and in turn the ways the history of the South has affected the development of American law. Volumes in the series focus on a specific aspect of the law, such as slave law or civil rights legislation, or on a broader topic of historical significance to the development of the legal system in the region, such as issues of constitutional history and of law and society, comparative analyses with other legal systems, and biographical studies of influential southern jurists and lawyers.
