McIlwain  1871-1968], a professor of history at Harvard University for more than three decades, developed--with a particular emphasis on Parliament's role as a judicial body--Pollock and Maitland's thesis from their landmark work The History of English Law Before the Time of Edward I (1895) that Parliament was not a legislature in the modern sense; it was an administrative and judicial instrument of the crown. Oliver Wendell Holmes praised the work in a May 8, 1918 letter to Harold J. Laski: \"... it left me greatly admiring it as an altogether admirable piece of work. It also kept me keenly interested from beginning to end.\" Howe, Holmes-Laski Letters I:152-153. xxi, 408 pp. Reprint of the first edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Howard McIlwain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 158477388X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781584773887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 438\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.13d","brand":"Charles Howard McIlwain","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44227804070143,"sku":"9781584773887","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9522d237-c9a9-4907-a934-e24de753ccf4.jpg?v=1692810700","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-high-court-of-parliament-charles-howard-mcilwain-9781584773887","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
