What to read after Legal and Political Hermeneutics, Or Principles of Interpretation and Construction in Law and Politics?

The second edition of the Hermeneutics was published in 1839, and has now been out of print for almost forty years. In 1860 Dr. Lieber carefully revised it, and made additions to both text and notes, expecting to pub lish a third edition, with a second part, of Special Hermeneutics, or Legal Rules of Interpretation and Construction, by an eminent member of the New York Bar, Mr. William Curtis Noyes. This plan, however, was not carried out, and Mr. Noyes died December 25, 1863, without hav ing written his proposed part. The text of the present edition, and Dr. Lieber's own notes, have been printed with the utmost exactness from the copy then prepared by him. The notes of the present editor will be readily distinguished.
