What should I get my brother in law for Christmas?
I don’t know him all that well since they live in California and I live in Canada. He is a guy’s guy. Does construction for a living, is 30 years old, owns his own business, likes sports, has a boat….
I would like to get him a book since I am on Amazon and I have ordered everyone else something off of there.
Any ideas?
How about a memorabilia book about his favorite sports team?

Excerpt: Christ Church Library.Christ Church Library is a Georgian building which forms the south side of Peckwater Quadrangle in Christ Church, Oxford , England. It houses the college’s modern lending library and early printed books on two floors.The first library at Christ Church was established in 1562 in what had been the refectory of St Frideswide’s Priory . The books, of which around 140 remain in the library, were originally chained to wooden lecterns.A new library was designed in the eighteenth century, with the intention of attracting aristocratic students to the college by equalling the great classical library buildings of Trinity College, Cambridge and Trinity College, Dublin . The most likely candidate for the architect is Dr George Clarke of All Souls ; the master mason was William Townsend or Townesend. Building work started in 1717 and was only completed in 1772.The books were housed on the first floor to avoid damp and flooding, while the ground floor was designed as an open loggia . However, a bequest of paintings from General John Guise during the protracted construction of the library led to the enclosure of the ground floor as a picture gallery (since moved to a separate, modernist, building).The front elevation and plan.The collections incorporate substantial bequests of books from, amongst others, Robert Burton ; Henry Aldrich , Dean of Christ Church; William |

Excerpt: Heydon’s Case (1584) 76 ER 637, Pasch 26 Eliz, plea began 20 Eliz Rot 140, is a landmark case that first used the mischief rule for interpretation. The mischief rule is more flexible than the Golden or Literal rule, the Mischief Rule requires judges to look over four tasks to ensure that gaps within the law are covered.Facts This is a construction of leases, life estates, and statutes. Otlery, a religious college, gave a tenancy in a manor also called “Otlery” to Ware and his son. The tenancy was established by copyhold, an ancient device for giving a parcel of a manor to a tenant, usually in return for agricultural services, which was something like a long-running lease with special privileges for each party. Ware and his son held their copyhold to have for their lives, subject to the will of the lord and the custom particular to that manor. The Wares copyhold was in a parcel also occupied by some tenants at will. The college then leased the parcel to Heydon for a period of eighty years in return for rents equal to the traditional rent for the components of the parcel. The following year, the college was dissolved and lost its lands and rents to Henry VIII, although the act of dissolution kept in force grants made within the previous year for a term of life. The Court of Exchequer found that the grant to the Wares was within the statute s protection but that the lease to Heydon was void. The ruling was based on an important discussion of the relationship of a statute to the pre-existing Common Law. By considering the statute as curing a defect in the Common Law, the remedy of the statute was |

Excerpt: FortificationThe Forte di Belvedere or Fortezza di Santa Maria in San Giorgio del Belvedere (often called simply Belvedere ) is a fortification in Florence , Italy . It was built by Grand Duke Ferdinando I de’ Medici during the period 1590 1595, with Bernardo Buontalenti as the designer, to protect the city and its rule by the Medici family . In particular, it was used to hold the Medici treasury.On the same side of the river as the Grand Ducal palace, the Pitti Palace in the Oltrarno district of the city , today the grounds provide spectacular outlooks over Florence; the buildings are used to hold works of art, and as a venue for exhibitions of contemporary sculpture.The design and construction of the Fort were entrusted to architect Bernardo Buontalenti , the chief architect for both Cosimo I and his son, Ferdinando. The Fort served many purposes: to protect the center of government in Florence, the Pitti Palace; to protect the south end of the city of Florence and the Oltrarno district; to demonstrate the power of the Medici family; and finally to provide a shelter for the Grand Duke if the city came under attack. The fort was connected to Palazzo Vecchio via the Vasari Corridor over Ponte Vecchio , passages in the Pitti Palace and paths through Boboli Gardens .Buontalenti applied contemporary fortification principles when he designed the Fort. The walls are designed at angles that allow for all the walls to be seen by another wall, allowing for cross fire to assist in |
