About This Book

A concise, often humorous handbook that explains the rights and liabilities encountered by travelers and carriers on land and water. Legal principles affecting drivers, servants, carriers, passengers, and pedestrians are set out in plain language and illustrated with anecdotes and judicial extracts. Topics covered include master and servant liability, negligence, railway and steamboat responsibilities, fares, sidewalks, and weather-related hazards. Supplemental notes, case lists, and an index cater to professional readers while the main text aims to instruct everyday travelers and entertain those journeying by coach, rail, or steamer.
