Details

The bill of lading has been the subject of numerous articles, dissertations and textbooks over the years, and this is hardly surprising. The bill of lading has a fascinating history, it has several functions with roots in both contract and property law, and its issuance may trigger the application of an international convention on the carriage of goods by sea, the Hague-Visby Rules. Whereas most books on the subject deal with the bill of lading in general, however, this book zooms in on the straight bill of lading and covers the differences (and simularities) with a negotiable (order or bearer) bill of lading.

1. The bill of lading

2. Order, bearer and straight bills of lading

3. The straight bill of lading contract

4. The transfer of (contractual rights under) a straight bill of lading

5. The straight bill of lading in the hands of the consignee

6. The presentation rule

7. The key to the warehouse

8. The straight bill of lading in a paperless future
