This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(Martens, Georg Friedrich von. An Essay on Privateers, Cap...)
Martens, Georg Friedrich von. An Essay on Privateers, Captures, and Particularly on Recaptures, According to the Laws, Treaties, and Usages of the Maritime Powers of Europe. To Which is Subjoined, A Discourse, In Which the Rights and Duties of Neutral Powers are Briefly Stated. Translated From the French, With Notes by Thomas Hartwell Horne. London: Printed for E. and R. Brooke, and J. Rider, 1801. xx, 240, 4 pp. Reprinted 2004 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-401-0. Cloth. $95. * Reprint of the first English edition. The Discourse is an extract from the author's Summary of the Modern Law of the Nations of Europe (1789). Martens 1756-1821 was a German diplomat and jurist who published several important treatises on international law. Like Bynkershoeck and Moser, Martens rejected the idea that international law derived from God or nature. Instead, it is an acquired behavior practiced by civilized states. This perspective informs his Essay on Privateers, which was one of the first books on the subject. A model of rational organization, it reduces its subject to a system grounded in a set of clear principles.
