In the first place, it is not a treatise upon the law of mines and mining, being restricted to the law as it applies to oil and gas. The history of petroleum as an article of commerce dates from about 1860. From the peculiar nature of oil and gas, questions absolutely new to the courts have arisen since then, to which there seemed to be no guide. This has suggested the following work. It is a presentation of the leading cases from the several courts which have made the subject one of special study and should be very welcome to the profession.
