Reviews

"Until one reads Kevin Kennedy's excellent book, most practitioners would not realise quite now many situations involve neighbourly relations. It is a useful addition to the contentious property lawyer's library, and I am certainly not letting my copy go until I have dealth with that thorny problem down on the farm."
