International Law

"International Law" by George Grafton Wilson and George Fox Tucker is an early 20th-century book that gives a complete overview of international law, highlighting its rise in importance as countries interacted more. The book explains the history, meanings, and importance of international law and the roles and duties that countries have internationally. The authors wrote this book as an easy to understand guide to international law because international negotiations were growing quickly, using real cases and laws to explain important ideas and adding extra information for readers to easily reference. Early chapters establish the basic ideas of international law, like its definitions, its breaking down into public and private parts, and its history, defining key concepts on how countries work together and what affects their relationships.
