Rogers on Elections, Registration, and Election Agency ... Twelfth Edition. By F. S. P. Wolferstan

Rogers on Elections originated in the mid-19th century as a comprehensive legal treatise designed to navigate the complexities of British parliamentary and municipal electoral law. Authored by Francis Newman Rogers, a barrister who served as a recorder, the text became a definitive manual for legal practitioners and election agents tasked with managing the increasingly bureaucratic requirements of the British franchise following the Reform Acts.

The twelfth edition, edited by F. S. P. Wolferstan, represents a period of consolidation for the work, serving as an essential reference tool during a time of frequent legislative updates. Wolferstan maintained the rigorous structural approach of the original, focusing on the minutiae of registration procedures, qualification requirements, and the technicalities of election agency, which earned the volume a reputation among Victorian legal scholars for its dense, reliable utility in courtroom settings.
