. A Selection of Cases Illustrative of the Law of

Contract. By C. S. Kenny. (Cambridge University Press. 20s. net.)—Professor Kenny has abridged the collection of cases made by the late Mr. G. B. Finch, and has added cases decided since 1896, when the last edition of Mr. Finch's work was published. The book contains in all some two hundred and forty reported cases, arranged under the appropriate heads. The student will find the collection interesting and helpful. The insertion of Main's case (1596) and other early decisions reminds one of the great antiquity of the English law.
