Snell’s Equity – 31st Ed.

Spine cover slightly detached at the top but otherwise intact.

There is no book to compare with Snell’s Equity when it comes to presenting a case in court involving trusts,  equitable maxims and equity in general.  You feel naked without it.

Because it is so authoritative Judges are very loath to depart from any clear statement of the law contained in it.   It is full of useful points including,  for instance a pithy summary of the stages to review an interlocutory injunction.  Sometimes you just need an aide memoir for the judge who will bristle if you implicitly suggest they may not be aware of the finer detail of Cyanamid,  and want to ensure they have an up to date and pithy guide as to the latest position on the authorities.

A new Snell will set you back a hefty sum but this may be servicable.
