Wheaton's Elements of international law

Elements of International Law, first published in 1836, is a book on international law by Henry Wheaton which has long been influential. This book was translated into many languages and became a standard work. On his own merits Wheaton is clearly entitled to rank among the classics. Like Grotius, he embodied a happy combination of profound scholarship with a wide experience of diplomatic and public life, and his work further resembles that of Grotius in that it cannot be classified under the conventional labels of any doctrinal system.
