About This Book
"In this legal history, Stuart Banner focuses on changing conceptions of law and property in Missouri in the decades surrounding the Louisiana Purchase. Banner describes two legal cultures, Anglo-American and French-Spanish, and traces the tensions and compromises occurring between the two cultures during this period of transition.".
"Offering historical data on legal issues related to the region, Banner's study will interest not only legal historians and historians of the American West, but also readers with an interest in jurisprudence and the economics of property rights."--BOOK JACKET.
