Summary:"The ten or so inns of chancery were all founded in the century after 1340, and for some 300 years were a part of the so-called 'third university of England'. Most that has been written about them relates to their later history when they had largely ceased to be involved in legal education. But recent research in manuscript sources shows something of them in their heyday as schools of law, including their governing regulations." -- Publisher's website.
