Morris L. Cohen: A Bibliography of His Works

104 Law Lib. J. 165

2012-05-01

Morris L. Cohen was one of the greatest bibliographers of our time. His work spans decades and documents centuries of legal material. However, Morris kept very modest and incomplete records of his own work. Compiling his bibliography required intense investigation within both print and electronic sources and uncovered various errors, omissions, and incomplete documentation.The compilation process gave the authors an even deeper appreciation of Morris’s accomplishment in publishing the Bibliography of Early American Law. As Morris knew all too well, any effort to compile a bibliography of someone so prolific is bound to have a few errors. The authors apologize in advance for these errors and hope we have avoided the most egregious ones. We have omitted translations of his works and presentations that did not result in transcribed speeches or collections. In some instances,we have only listed the first edition of Morris’s books. Please excuse us if in doing so we omitted coauthors who were instrumental in subsequent editions.
