Scholarly Works

In "A Comment on the Critical Method in Legal History," 6 Cardozo L. Rev. 997 (1985), Mark Tushnet responded to Alan Watson's review of his book, THE AMERICAN LAW OF SLAVERY, 1810-1860, which appeared at 91 Yale L.J. 1034 (1982). In a letter to the Editor-in-Chief of the Cardozo Law Review reproduced below, Professor Watson launches the next salvo in their ongoing debate by comparing quotes from Critical Method, THE AMERICAN LAW OF SLAVERY, the Yale book review, and other sources.
