The history of the poor laws: with observations. By Richard Burn, ...
( The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration...)
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Delve into what it was like to live during the eighteenth century by reading the first-hand accounts of everyday people, including city dwellers and farmers, businessmen and bankers, artisans and merchants, artists and their patrons, politicians and their constituents. Original texts make the American, French, and Industrial revolutions vividly contemporary. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Richard Burn
Richard Burn was an English legal writer.
Education
He was educated at Queen's College, Oxford. In 1762, after Burn had attained notoriety as a legal scholar, the University of Oxford awarded him an honorary LL. D.
Career
Burn entered the Church, and in 1736 became vicar of Orton in Westmorland. He was a justice of the peace for the counties of Westmorland and Cumberland, and devoted himself to the study of law. He was appointed chancellor of the diocese of Carlisle in 1765, an office which he held till his death at Orton on the 12th of November 1785. Burn wrote Justice of the "Peace and Parish Officer", first published in 1755, and "Ecclesiastical Law (1760)". The best edition is that by R. Phillimore (4 vols. , 1842). Burn also wrote Digest of the Militia Laws (1760), and A New Law Dictionary (2 vols. , 1792).
Achievements
-
Burn's Justice of the Peace and Parish Officer was for many years the standard authority on the law relating to justices of the peace. It has passed through innumerable editions. His Ecclesiastical Law (1760), a work of much research, was the foundation upon which were built many modern commentaries on ecclesiastical law.
