TRUSTS-RESTATED AND REWRITTEN

Two books were published during the past year which are of the greatest importance to those of the legal profession who are interested in the law of trusts. Professor Bogert's seven volumes appeared first, followed shortly by The Restatement of the Law of Trusts by the American Law Institute, of which Professor Scott, of the Harvard Law School, was the reporter. Professor Bogert, of the University of Chicago Law School, was a member of the Institute's Committee on Trusts. Since 1927, therefore, when the Institute began work on the Restatement of Trusts, Professor Bogert apparently has been working on both projects.

This fact makes a comparative study of these volumes the more interesting.
