St. German's work shifted the definition of equity away from arbitrary royal grace and toward a structured system of moral fairness within the courts. This 1761 edition is particularly notable as it was printed by Samuel Richardson-the famous novelist who ran a highly successful law printing patent-and Catherine Lintot. It also includes the crucial "thirteen chapters" on parliamentary power, which shaped the rhetoric of both British and American lawyers on the eve of the American Revolution. The added chapters on the "Power and Jurisdiction of Parliament" were highly studied by early American legal minds. Provenance: Charles P. Daly (1816-1899), Chief Justice of the New York Court of Common Pleas, with his custom bookplate on the front pastedown with bound-in manu.
