Formarea dreptului comun englez ofera o imagine de ansamblu cuprinzatoare asupra dezvoltarii dreptului englez timpuriu, unul dintre subiectele clasice ale istoriei medievale. Aceasta a doua editie mult extinsa se intinde de-a lungul secolelor, de la regele Alfred la Carta Magna, abandonand pauza traditionala, dar restrictiva, de la cucerirea normanda.
