Documents of American Constitutional and Legal History, Third
Edition, is a two-volume companion to Urofsky and Finkelman's
successful text, A March of Liberty, Second Edition. Organized
chronologically, this documents reader skillfully weaves together
constitutional and legal history, offering students a mix of both
frequently cited and lesser-known--but equally
important--historical documents and court decisions that have been
instrumental in shaping the nation's constitutional development.
The editors provide an introduction to each document, which
summarizes its significance and places it within its historical
context. Each introduction is followed by a brief list of
suggestions for further reading. Both volumes contain the complete
text of the U.S. Constitution for ease of reference.
The third edition has been updated to include both newly
significant documents from the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries
and many recent legal documents of significance, from the latest
Supreme Court decisions up through the recent Guantanamo Bay
controversy. In addition, the introductions have been revised and
the suggested reading sections have been updated to reflect recent
scholarship. For the first time, this edition will also include the
voting records for each case and an appendix of U.S. Supreme court
judges and their tenures. This reader is an essential resource for
anyone studying U.S. Constitutional History and/or Law.
