Jason A. Gillmer and William S. Pugsley, Editors
Texas’s rich legal heritage spans more than three centuries and has roots in both
Spanish law and English common law, but this dimension of the state’s history is
relatively unexplored. Books in the Texas Legal Studies Series, sponsored by the
Texas Supreme Court Historical Society, will examine a range of topics, including
state-speci c studies and those with a regional or national focus.
