Excerpt from A Selection of Legal Maxims, Classified and Illustrated In his preface to the original edition, which is reprinted below, Dr. Broom explained the system adopted by him in arranging the legal maxims he selected for illustration, and gave the reasons which led to its adoption. The main idea of the work is to present, under the head of Maxims, certain leading principles of English law, and briefly to illustrate some of the ways in which those principles have been applied or limited, by reference to a sufficient number of reported cases. Many subjects are thus touched upon lightly, and no endeavour is made to produce an exhaustive digest of the case law upon any one subject, or to rival treatises devoted exclusively to particular branches of the law.
