Excerpt from A Concise Explanation of Lord Birkenhead's Act: The Law of Property Act, 1922 in Plain Language This little work is founded on a Course of Lectures which the writer delivered in Lincoln's Inn Old Hall during November 1922, at the request of his colleagues on the Council of Legal Education. It is not, of course, intended to be a detailed treatise on the Act, nor to justify the reader in dispensing with such a treatise in practice. But, as every lawyer knows, there are two kinds of professional knowledge, viz., a general and habitual knowledge of the broad principles of law, and a knowledge of where to find, when wanted, the minute details of the law, whether crystallised in statutes or cases. This work is confined to the first of these classes, and it is hoped and believed will give the practitioner a sufficient general grasp of the broad principles of the new law of property, and will at all events assist him to understand the Act. The Act has been the work of many hands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
