Roger W. Cooley, "Tiffany's Handbook on The Law of Persons and Domestic Relations" (Second ed., 1909).

In 1909 West Publishing Company issued a second edition of Walter C. Tiffany's 1896 hornbook on domestic relations. It was written by Roger W. Cooley, a member of the faculty of the St. Paul College of Law who was also on the staff of West. The text of Cooley's edition of Walter Tiffany's hornbook is posted here (Walter C. Tiffany must not be confused with Francis Buchanan Tiffany, a St. Paul lawyer, treatise writer and founder of the St. Paul College of Law).

It was reviewed in four law journals: The Central Law Journal, Georgetown Law Journal, the Harvard Law Review and The Green Bag. They are posted separately on the Minnesota Legal History Project website.

Roger William Cooley later served for many years as Dean and Professor of Law at the University of North Dakota Law School. He died on November 7, 1931, at age seventy-one.
