Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed and illuminating review of legal cases and opinions on barratry, a term used in marine law for a captain's fraudulent, criminal, or intentional act that damages a ship, cargo, or its insurers. Cases discussed in this archival volume date to the early 18th century, when the word entered common English legal usage. The author provides historical context and etymology for the term to assist in defining its legal meaning, ultimately concluding that while barratry encompasses fraud and criminal intent, it does not extend to negligence or deviation absent proof of fraudulent motive or intent to injure the owner.
