Excerpt from Parties to Mortgage Foreclosures and Their Rights and Liabilities in Connection With Actions and Proceedings for the Foreclosure of Mortgages, 1886 This book has been written for the use of practicing attorneys who have to foreclose mortgages. It treats directly and specially of parties to foreclosures, and indirectly of their rights and liabilities in connection therewith. The design of the author has been not to examine the whole subject of the law of mortgages, but to treat exhaustively and analytically a single branch of that law. A personal examination has been made of every case cited with a view to making the book accurate as well as exhaustive, and as far as possible original. Digests and general test-books have been used very little; the work has been written up from the decisions of the courts as contained in the state reports, to which access has been had in the Court of Appeals library, at Rochester, N. Y. The indexes in over 1,500 volumes of reports have been separately examined; consequently much new matter has been obtained that can be found in no other treatise on mortgages. In the foot notes the limitations and modifications of general principles and the special and peculiar instances are given fully. The practicing attorney is familiar with general principles; he wants the peculiar and special cases. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
