Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A little difficult in the reading but well worth it

[Josiah Bates · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Law of Nations is the supreme work on international law throughout the Revolutionary and Napoleonic eras. I thoroughly enjoy reading Vattel in a greater way than I enjoy others from his time period. I want to read this again during my college years, because I think it sets up some good guard-rails for thinking about natural and positive law in general.

A masterpiece of rights. Examines the nation, state and individual as a society member. Effects of 7 Years War benefited this work. Secular religious ideas and just theories about international relations.
