Dedicated to "... his singular friend Nicholas Bacon, the Kings Attorney of his Court of Wards , and Keeper of the Great Seale of England." Bacon was the father of the philosopher and statesman Sir Francis Bacon.
(This book is) "Concerned with the property rights of the crown rather than with constitutional principles. Fulbeck justly said of Stanford's books in 1600 that they were of: 'force and weight, and no common kind of stile; in matter none hath gone beyond him, in method none hath overtaken him. And surely his method may be a law to the writers of the law which shall succeed him.'"
