Book Description
This book provides an in-depth examination of public opinion in Alabama to see whether it follows the stereotype of ideological and partisan polarization in the United States. The authors show that even in such a staunchly conservative state, public opinion is considerably more nuanced and complex than this stereotype, suggesting a need to transcend the competing conservative and liberal orthodoxies.

Book Description
Excerpt from An Impartial Opinion on the Alabama Question, and the Manner of Settling It When the American colonies took up arms to gain their independence, the King and Parliament of Great Britain commenced by calling them rebels, and a considerable time passed before the English generals recognized the American militia as troops of a. Belligerent power, that is, as honorable enemies. It is remembered how Lord Howe at first refused the title of general to Washington, although he desired to nego tiate with him, and how proudly the great general repelled the claim: of his adversary to treat him as a private individual, when he commanded the armies of his country. It is also remembered how the American General Lee, who was taken prisoner by the English troops in 1776, was at first treated as a criminal prisoner, until the efforts of Washing ton and his threats of reprisals induced the hostile general to treat Lee as a prisoner of war.* Still, in the course of the war of independence the English decided to relax their rigor and to treat their enemies as a belligerent power.

Book Description
Winner of the Anne B. & James B. McMillan Prize in Southern History Examines the legacies of eight momentous US Supreme Court decisions that have their origins in Alabama legal disputes Unknown to many, Alabama has played a remarkable role in a number of Supreme Court rulings that continue to touch the lives of every American. In Alabama Justice: The Cases and Faces That Changed a Nation, Steven P. Brown has identified eight landmark cases that deal with religion, voting rights, libel, gender discrimination, and other issues, all originating from legal disputes in Alabama. Written in a concise and accessible manner, each case law chapter begins with the circumstances that created the dispute. Brown then provides historical and constitutional background for the issue followed by a review of the path of litigation. Excerpts from the Court's ruling in the case are also presented, along with a brief account of the aftermath and significance of the decision. The First Amendment (New York Times v. Sullivan), racial redistricting (Gomillion v. Lightfoot), the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment (Frontiero v. Richardson), and prayer in public schools (Wallace v. Jaffree) are among the pivotal issues stamped indelibly by disputes with their origins in Alabama legal, political, and cultural landscapes. In addition to his analysis of cases, Brown discusses the three associate justices sent from Alabama to the Supreme Court--John McKinley, John Archibald Campbell, and Hugo Black--whose cumulative influence on the institution of the Court, constitutional interpretation, and the day-to-day rights and liberties enjoyed by every American is impossible to measure. A closing chapter examines the careers and contributions of these three Alabamians.
