A good supplement to a Property Law textbook, but a smidge of the info contradicts the textbook, so defer to the textbook when that happens.

This book actually helped me understand and remember property law. I read it on the way to my parent's house for Thanksgiving dinner, and because of it, I was able to attack my studying in a much more effective manner. This book really did make me feel happy about Property!

A must read for all law students taking property law.
