Regarding the specifics of legal education, he discusses the best methods of study and information on the sources and principles of English law. This is a reprint of the first edition. As distinguished a jurist as Coke and Bacon, Sir John Doderidge [1555-1628] was a counselor of the King's Bench, a Serjeant for Prince Henry, solicitor-general and a member of Parliament. He was the author of five important works that were all published posthumously. "Of books written about law to instruct students, the most notable, written by a common lawyer, is Doderidge's 'English Lawyer.'" --Holdsworth, A History of English Law V:397-398.
