Summary: Another night law students dream
Comment: This is a very consise treatise of Property Law - it is not your typical hornbook - this is an excellent study book - with excelent hypos - it has very terse restatements of the law with killer Essay - hypo problems ( Lots of them too - numbers of roughly tracking the importance of the subject - IE lots of Adverse Possession probs - a few finders law probs ) - its like a Siegels or Emanuels Q&A but with hard covers - it is really a "find" for those studying property law. Im tickled the most recent edition is 2001 !

Summary: Helpful and reliable
Comment: What can you say about a hornbook? I'm trying to review the ones I use for class as fast as I finish using them, but except for famous ones like Prosser and Keeton, there's not much to do other than point out whether I found them helpful and reliable.
This one was both. As an evening law student with delusions of eternal youth, I just completed two semesters of property law during summer session, and I surely found Hovenkamp's discussions useful. (In general I prefer hornbooks to casebooks anyway.) The text includes lots of sample problems as well; you may especially appreciate this feature when you discuss estates, future interests, and the Rule Against Perpetuities.
I didn't notice anything that clearly set it apart from other property-law hornbooks, but we don't, after all, buy these things for the bells and whistles. It's a solid book that covers a standard subject in pretty much the standard order. Recommended to law students.
