E Pluribus Unum
How the Common Law Helped Unify and Liberate Colonial America, 1607-1776
In E Pluribus Unum, eminent legal historian William E. Nelson shows that the colonies' gradual embrace of the common law was instrumental to the establishment of the United States. He traces how the diverse legal orders of Britain's thirteen colonies gradually evolved into one system, adding to our understanding of how law impacted governance in the colonial era and beyond.
