Why the History of English Law is Not Written is a thought-provoking lecture by Frederic William Maitland, one of the most prominent legal historians of the late 19th century. In this lecture, Maitland questions why there has been so little attention paid to the history of English law, despite its importance for understanding the legal system not only of England but also of the United States and other common-law countries. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in legal history or the history of English common law.
