| Summary | "The Law Relating to Betting, Time-Bargains and Gaming" by G. Herbert Stutfield and Henry Strother Cautley is a legal treatise written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the complex and evolving legal landscape surrounding gambling, betting, and various related contracts in England. It delves into the intricacies of common law and statutory provisions affecting wager contracts, offering insights into the legal implications of gambling practices, including the roles of betting houses and lotteries. The opening portion of the book provides a thorough preface that outlines the rationale behind its publication and revision. The authors discuss legislative changes and case law that influence the betting landscape, noting the prevalence of gambling and the courts' ongoing involvement in adjudicating disputes arising from various forms of betting. They introduce key legal concepts, such as wager contracts and the distinction between legal and illegal gambling practices, and emphasize the challenges courts face in interpreting these laws. This foundational framework sets the tone for a detailed exploration of the various legal statutes and principles governing gambling throughout the text.
