In narrative as engaging as it is accessible, Michael Ariens has produced an overarching consideration of Lone Star law and legal culture, something notably missing in other Texas histories. After taking readers chronologically from early settlement through 1920, Ariens focuses on particular areas of Texas law, and on the history of Texas's legal profession itself.

Michael Ariens proves that no state possesses a richer or more surprising legal history than Texas. In narrative as engaging as it is accessible, he has produced an overarching consideration of Lone Star law and legal culture something notably missing in other Texas histories. After taking readers chronologically from early settlement through 1920, Ariens focuses on particular areas of Texas law, including property, family, business, criminal, and civil harms (tort), and on the history of Texas's legal profession itself. Through illuminating and utterly Texan particulars, Ariens helps us understand a place at once southern and western, Spanish and Mexican, republic and state.

Michael Ariens is professor of law at St. Mary's University of SanAntonio, where he teaches courses in legal history, constitutional law, and the legal profession.
