Thanks to a request from staff in HCA the Library current has extended trial access to The Making of Modern Law: Foreign, Comparative, and International Law, 1600-1926 from Gale. This resource provides you with instant, full-text access to primary source documents previously found only at the largest and oldest repositories.

You can access The Making of Modern Law: Foreign, Comparative, and International Law from the E-resources trials page.
Access is available on and off-campus.

Trial access ends 30th June 2020.

Foreign, Comparative, and International Law primarily covers the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, but there are also several hundred classics in European international law since the seventeenth century. It brings together foreign, comparative, and international titles in a single resource and the collections complements those in The Making of Modern Law: Legal Treatises, 1800-1926, which the Library already has access to.

The materials in this archive are drawn from three world-class American law libraries: the Yale Law Library, the George Washington University Law Library, and the Columbia Law Library.

You can access The Making of Modern Law: Foreign, Comparative, and International Law, 1600-1926 via  E-resources trials.
Access is available on and off-campus.
Trial access ends 30th June 2020.
Feedback welcome.

Access is only available to current students and staff at University of Edinburgh.

Please note, trial access to a resource is an opportunity for our staff and students to try a resource out and give feedback on its quality and usefulness. However, if we trial a resource this is not an indication that we plan to or will be able to purchase or subscribe to the resource in the near future.
