From its first edition, Broom's Legal Maxims was recognised as a masterly exposition of the principles upon which our common law is based and it rapidly became a legal classic. * Later editors each revised the work in the light of new legislation, but care has been taken to keep the text as far as possible as originally written * The tenth edition was published in 1939 and has long since been out of print. Bar students, counsel and the Bench will welcome this reprint
