About the set

The standard reference for civil procedure.

The White Book is the standard reference for civil procedure in the High Court and County Court, tracing back to 1883 as the Annual Practice. Published annually by Sweet & Maxwell in two volumes plus regular supplements, it's trusted by more judges and lawyers than any other civil procedure text -- and, like Archbold on the criminal side, chambers and firms often hold a run of several years' editions.

Current & recent years

The most recent one or two editions carry the most value, published annually by Sweet & Maxwell.

A run of years

Several consecutive years, complete with supplements, are genuinely useful to us and to the next buyer.

Single volumes

Even one year on its own is worth an enquiry -- older years are considered case by case.

We buy the rest of the shelf too.

Common questions

About selling your The White Book set

The White Book is republished every year -- do you only want the current edition?

We're happy to buy the current year and recent past years. A run of several years is fine too.

Do you buy the Costs & Funding supplement separately?

Yes, alongside the main two volumes if you have it.

What if I only have one year?

Still worth an enquiry -- we buy single-year sets as well as multi-year runs.
