Henry Blackstone (1761 or 1762-?), the nephew of Sir William Blackstone and reporter for the Court of Common Pleas,[1] published the first volume of his reports in 1791 with the second following in 1796. Blackstone "uniformly confined his attention to points of real importance, and throughout his work evinces much accuracy and fidelity, with as great a degree of conciseness as is consistent with perspicuity."[2]
