DESCRIPTION:Judge William G. Young explores how Salem and Boston maritime 
 conflicts (1800–1840) shaped early American admiralty law post Revolutio
 n. \nLearn about the establishment of American Admiralty Law in Salem and 
 Boston following the American Revolution\, tracing how early 19th-century 
 maritime conflicts in these port cities shaped the development of American
  jurisprudence. The lecture will examine how disputes over cargo\, salvage
 \, and prize cases during the period tested and refined the young nation
 ’s legal system. Judge Young will also discuss the pivotal role played b
 y Judge John Davis in establishing practical precedents for handling these
  cases — precedents that would go on to influence the broader framework 
 of American admiralty law. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nThe Honorable Wi
 lliam G. Young has served as a Judge of the United States District Court f
 or the District of Massachusetts since 1985\, following eight years on the

 reer as law clerk to Chief Justice Raymond S. Wilkins of the Massachusetts
