Written to steer ordinary people along legal ways, this handbook explains the commercial law an American householder or small businessman met daily: checks and notes, sales, agents, partnerships, landlords and tenants, insurance, wills and liens. It ends with model legal forms for land sales, party walls and building contracts. The law described is that of its own time, not current advice.
