Carl Brent Swisher – författare

A complete constitutional history, from the British colonies to the Truman era.

Criticism and hostility may tarnish the reputation of the Court and limit its symbolic authority, even when counterbalanced by praise from admirers of challenged decisions and may cause thoughtful observers to withhold legitimate and badly needed criticism. The purpose of this revised edition is to illuminate for the general reader chosen segments of the Court's performance, and to aid those who are confused by highly controversial and often emotionalized popular discussion.
