Historical and Legal Examination (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on two political questions that the author holds to be of the utmost importance. The first is that of the Missouri Compromise Act and the second is whether the US Constitution can extend itself to territories and by which means. The author maintains that resolving these political questions is a job for political institutions and not a matter that the Supreme Court should concern itself with. The author believes that the broad historical context of the Supreme Court's decision to rule on these questions in the Dred Scott case has led to errors in its judgment that are detrimental to the country. These errors have resulted in an alteration of the Constitution not by the means provided for in the Constitution, but by judicial fiat. The author concludes that the only recourse to this situation is a return to reason and intelligence to restore safety to the country. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330778593_0
