| EASEMENTS & REVERSIONS ($80)
Over the years there have been many articles concerning easements and several books which either made easements their focus, or devoted a separate chapter to them. While the emphasis has been on what an easement is and how they are created, little analysis has appeared on the termination of easements and the fate of the land burdened by them. This treatment attempts to address that topic and the reversion rights and boundaries that acompany easement termination.
