Summary

"Anglo Law Roots" explores the fascinating genesis of English common law, a legal system that has profoundly influenced societies worldwide. It traces the evolution from rudimentary Anglo-Saxon customs to the landmark implementation of Magna Carta, revealing how historical forces shaped the principles of justice and governance we know today.

 
Did you know that Anglo-Saxon law relied heavily on oral tradition and local customs, a stark contrast to the formalized legal procedures introduced by the Normans? The book particularly emphasizes the enduring impact of Magna Carta, a pivotal document that limited royal power and championed individual liberties.

 
The book meticulously examines key historical periods, starting with Anglo-Saxon legal customs, progressing through the transformative Norman Conquest, and culminating in an in-depth analysis of Magna Carta. By examining primary sources and legal commentaries, "Anglo Law Roots" provides a balanced understanding of the interplay between customary practices, royal decrees, and societal demands. This approach offers valuable insights into the origins of concepts like due process and the rule of law, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in legal history, political science, and the foundations of modern legal systems.

    "Engaging" stories of what the Motor City was like before the invention of the motor (Detroit Metro-Times). 
     
     
      
    Long before it became the twentieth-century automotive capital, Detroit was a muddy port town full of grog shops, horse races, haphazard cemeteries, and enterprising bootstrappers from all over the world. 
     
     
      
    In this lively book you'll discover the city's forgotten history and meet a variety of unforgettable characters—the argumentative French fugitive who founded the city; the tobacco magnate who haunts his shuttered factory; the gambler prankster millionaire who built a monument to himself; the governor who brought his scholarly library with him on canoe expeditions; and the historians who helped create the story of Detroit as we know it: one of the oldest, rowdiest, and most enigmatic cities in the Midwest.

    The Chinese Must Go - Violence...

    Beth Lew-Williams

    In 1885, following the massacre of Chinese miners in Wyoming territory, communities throughout California and the Pacific Northwest harassed, assaulted, and expelled thousands of Chinese immigrants. The Chinese Must Go shows how American immigration policies incited this violence, and how this gave rise to the concept of the "alien" in America. 
     
     
     
    Our story begins in the 1850s, before federal border control established strict divisions between citizens and aliens—and long before Congress passed the Chinese Restriction Act, the nation's first attempt to bar immigration based on race and class. When this unprecedented experiment failed to slow Chinese migration, armed vigilante groups took the matter into their own hands. Fearing the spread of mob violence, policymakers redoubled their efforts to seal the borders, overhauling immigration law and transforming America's relationship with China in the process. By tracing the idea of the alien back to this violent era, Lew-Williams offers a troubling new origin story of today's racialized border.
