About the author

Born on April 30th 1794, Joseph K. Angell had sufficient financial resources to enter Brown University in 1809. After receiving his A.B. in 1813 he went on to study at the renowned law school in Litchfield, Connecticut, before returning to Rhode Island, where he was admitted to the practice of law in 1816. Angell briefly read law in Providence with the Hon. Thomas Burgess before moving to England in 1819. It was overseas that he decided to forgo the practice of law in favor of writing about jurisprudence. It is for his many legal treatises that he is best known today.Angell returned to the U.S. and in 1824 published his first book, A Treatise on the Common Law Relating to Water Courses, which addressed the uses of waterways by manufacturing companies and mills.
