During the second half of the 19th century, Barrow-in-Furness became a pioneer in iron and steel production. It was an industry that grew astronomically to become the largest integrated steelworks in north Lancashire and Cumberland, and at one time the largest steelworks in the world. Its success was due, apart from those provided by nature, to having the prestige of three dukes as directors. The company owned collieries in three counties and ore mines in two. This book chronicles the company’s past, from the early empire through the interwar and post-war years, the development of continuous casting in the 1950s, which revolutionized steelmaking, and finally, the struggles and ultimate demise of this once prominent industry from the 1960s onwards.

As before, this edition eschews any distinctive take on the law of contracts and thus allows each teacher using the book a broad range of choice on what to bring in to channel or expand classroom discussion.The most visible alteration in this edition is a restructuring and reordering of some material both to underscore basic themes and put in clearer perspective the developments of the twentieth century.An effort has been made to deal with the “coverage” problem in an increasingly cro

Appendix to Contracts, Cases and Comment (Selected Statutes)

With the appearance of the Eleventh Edition, this book is now well into its sixth decade.

This new edition preserves and builds upon the book’s distinctive character, especially its use of canonical cases and its sensitivity to the history. The newly added cases show how the basic principles of contract law continue to evolve, even in such well-explored areas as promissory estoppel and restitution. As before, this edition eschews any distinctive take on the law of contracts and thus allows each teacher using the book a broad range of choice on what to bring in to channel or expand classroom discussion.
