Excerpt from Briefs on the Law of Insurance, Vol. 1 of 5 This series of Briefs on the Law of Insurance is, in many respects, a radical departure from the beaten paths of legal literature. It is not a treatise, or a digest, or a series of annotations; nor is it a text-book, as that term is usually understood. Its purpose is to furnish the practitioner with complete briefs on every phase of the Law of Insurance, so far as it relates to the contract. The aim of the author has been to take up every question that has been raised in relation to the contract of insurance, and to brief the law apply ing to such questions - mot only to state the decisions of the courts, but also to show the reasons for such decisions, and the theories on which the courts have distinguished or have attempted to recon cile apparently conflicting cases. The Briefs cover all kinds of insurance and the application of the law to all classes of insurance contracts. Questions connected with the organization of insurance companies, the conduct of their business, and their regulation by state laws have been discussed only in their relation to the validity and construction of the contract.
