Description

Admiralty and Maritime Law in the United States Cases and Materials Fifth Edition David W. Robertson

ISBN: 9781531035655

Admiralty and Maritime Law in the United States examines the distinctive structure of American maritime law, which broadly aligns with the laws of other maritime nations while reflecting unique features rooted in the U.S. Constitution and the First Judiciary Act of 1789. As a leading casebook in the field, it explores both the principles shared across international maritime law and the particular characteristics of the U.S. legal system. Although written by authors with extensive admiralty expertise, the book takes a broad, generalist approach, connecting maritime law to students’ wider legal studies while providing the essential foundation for advanced coursework and professional practice.

The fifth edition incorporates updates throughout to reflect important developments in the law and recent academic scholarship. Among its notable additions is coverage of the U.S. Supreme Court’s return to the subject of marine insurance after nearly seventy years, along with other significant changes shaping contemporary maritime law.
