Sinopsis

This short piece discusses book publisher H.H. Bancroft?s efforts to resolve this supply issue by bringing practical and cost-effective law books to lawyers in antebellum California. By examining two of his company?s catalogues, important insights can be gleaned not only about the legal information needs of early California lawyers, but also Bancroft?s innovative agency business model which linked both sides of the United States continent through the antebellum legal publishing industry.
