On the basis of both civil and criminal suits, some private and
some brought by the government, Professor Tachau demonstrates that
the federal courts in Kentucky were immediately accessible,
visible, and deeply involved in the lives of the people. The actual
legal practice revealed in the records thus contradicts much of the
conventional wisdom and traditional assumptions about the
"inferiority" of the lower federal judiciary and suggests that a
major revision of American legal and constitutional history may be
in order. Originally published in 1978. The Princeton Legacy
Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make
available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished
backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the
original texts of these important books while presenting them in
durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton
Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly
heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton
University Press since its founding in 1905.
