"The American Bill of Rights is . . . a magic mirror," writes
Bernard Schwartz, "wherein we see reflected not only our lives, but
the whole pageant of Anglo-American constitutional development and
all that those struggles have meant in the history of freedom."
Perhaps the finest short history of the Bill of Rights ever
written, this is an updated, expanded version of the classic. The
author has added an afterword that brings the history of what
Madison called "the great rights of mankind" through the Rehnquist
court, making this an invaluable study.
