Last and best edition of the first English law dictionary. Corrected and greatly enlarged with English and Law French in parallel columns. This edition was translated by his son, William Rastell [1508?-1565], who is often listed as its author. First published in 1527, this pioneering dictionary was originally written in Law French with the Latin title Expositiones Terminorum Legum Anglorumae. Quite popular with students and lawyers due to its clarity and concision, it went through at least twenty-five editions by 1721. This edition was reissued in 1742 and again in 1819. As Marvin observes, it is a useful dictionary because it "reflects the common law at the close of the year-book period with much fidelity.": Legal Bibliography (1847) 599. Read more
