Property Law: Study Aids

Treatises and hornbooks offer in-depth explanations about an area of law. Treatises can span for several volumes, and authoritaively cover a legal topic in detail.

Both can be used to gain a greater understanding of the law, but should be cited in court documents very infrequently, if ever.
