Book Description
Excerpt from A Pocket Code of the Rules of Evidence in Trials at Law The historian Judas Maccabaeus, in a preface of two thousand years ago, has supplied a concise and laudable canon for the task of an abridger. All these things, he says, we shall essay to abridge in one volume, with the endeavor to make it attractive to read, convenient to learn, and profitable to use. The object of the present volume is twofold: to provide the practitioner with a handy summary of the existing rules of Evidence; and at the same time to state them in a scientific form capable of serving as a code. The practitioner needs a handy summary. He must impress all rules of procedure into his memory, by frequent re-perusal, so as to have the details familiar at call. He must also have at hand a concise manual for ready reference when memory fails. Those needs the present book aims to meet.

John Henry Wigmore and the Rules of Evidence

Book Description
Honorable Mention, 2017 Scribes Book Award, The American Society of Legal Writers At the dawn of the twentieth century, the United States was reeling from the effects of rapid urbanization and industrialization. Time-honored verities proved obsolete, and intellectuals in all fields sought ways to make sense of an increasingly unfamiliar reality. The legal system in particular began to buckle under the weight of its anachronism. In the midst of this crisis, John Henry Wigmore, dean of the Northwestern University School of Law, single-handedly modernized the jury trial with his 1904-5 Treatise onevidence, an encyclopedic work that dominated the conduct of trials. In so doing, he inspired generations of progressive jurists—among them Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., Benjamin Cardozo, and Felix Frankfurter—to reshape American law to meet the demands of a new era. Yet Wigmore’s role as a prophet of modernity has slipped into obscurity. This book provides a radical reappraisal of his place in the birth of modern legal thought.
