Description:
A classic and influential treatise on copyright law, Drone's Treatise took an expansive, natural law view of authors' entitlements. Jessica Litman observes that Drone is probably responsible for the Supreme Court decision, Ferris v Frohman (1912), that held performances did not divest an author of common-law copyright.
