Originally published in 1915, this book discusses the complexities of the law governing cases of 'wrongs committed by means of animals'. Robson demonstrates how laws concerning damage caused by animals were formulated and how the laws were applied in his day. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in British legal history and the development of British law.
