Excerpt from American Railroad Law This book was begun in 1884. The author had then been for twenty years in the active practice of the legal profession, and continued in it for some time afterwards. In his earlier years at the bar he was more often engaged in suing than in defending railroad companies; in the later years more in counselling and defending them than in suing them. Since 1876, also, he has taught Railroad Law, at some length, to the third-year class in the Yale Law School. He has therefore studied the subject enough to have some appreciation of its difficulties. Part of these, it has seemed to him, have been due to the inclusion in treatises upon it of much that is not peculiar to railroads. His attempt has been to limit his work to what is peculiar to them, so far as this was possible without sacrifice of order or danger of obscurity.
