Not sure they are really.

English law is partly case law (based on decided cases through the courts) and hence changes daily.

Legislation is available on line - the Office of Publice Sector Information has most current primary legislation and Statutory Instruments online at www.opsi.gov.uk

For a start Halsbury's Statutes of England (Scotland has it's own system) Then you will need Halsbury's Statutory Instruments each of which has over 50 volumes. There are private Acts of Parliament which govern certain ports Railways and Local Authorities. Then you need volumes of case law (the law of precedent) and you will also need a very good textbook on common law. When you have read and absorbed all of that in about 50 years time. It won't matter anyway because the first thing you read has been changed. there is of course more but I think that is enough to be going on with. I don't think you will find most of this on line anyway
