/content/uploads/2023/06/8.James-Kent.jpg640800James Kent (1763–1847) was a judge in the state of New York and was the first professor of law at Columbia University. Between 1826 and 1830 he authored the four-volume set of books from which this selection was excerpted. The Commentaries were a “restatement” (i.e., a summary) of current U.S. laws. Often they were the only legal books lawyers of that period possessed, and as such were incredibly influential. They earned Kent the epithet the “American Blackstone,” after William Blackstone (1723–1780), whose Commentaries on the Laws of England codified British common law.
