Book Description
An Introduction to Constitutional Law teaches the narrative of constitutional law as it has developed historically and provides the essential background to understand how this foundational body of law has come to be what it is today. This multimedia experience combines a book and video series to engage students more directly in the study of constitutional law. All students—even those unfamiliar with American history—will garner a firm understanding of how constitutional law has evolved. An eleven-hour online video library brings the Supreme Court’s most important decisions to life. Videos are enriched by photographs, maps, and audio from the Supreme Court. The book and videos are accessible for all levels: law school, college, high school, home school, and independent study. Students can read and watch these materials before class to prepare for lectures or study after class to fill in any gaps in their notes. And, come exam time, students can binge-watch the entire canon of constitutional law in about twelve hours.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ... Marshall, C. J.... The first object of inquiry is, 1st. Has the applicant a right to the commission he demands?... The court finds that as Marbury's appointment was complete he has a right to the commission. This brings us to the second inquiry, which is, 2dly. If he has a right, and that right has been violated, do the laws of his country afford him a remedy?... The court finds that they do. It remains to be inquired whether, 3dly. He is entitled to the remedy for which he applies. This depends on, 1st. The nature of the writ applied for; and, 2dly. The power of this court. 1st. The nature of the writ.... This, then, is a plain case for a mandamus, either to deliver the commission, or a copy of it from the record; and it only remains to be inquired, Whether it can issue from this court. The act to establish the judicial courts of the United States authorizes the supreme court "to issue writs of mandamus, in cases warranted by the principles and usages of law, to any courts appointed, or persons holding office, under the authority of the United States...". The constitution vests the whole judicial power of the United States in one supreme court, and such inferior courts as congress shall, from time to time, ordain and establish.... In the distribution of this power it is declared that "the supreme court shall have original jurisdiction in all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, and those in which a State shall be a party. In all other cases, the supreme court shall have appellate jurisdiction...". If it had been intended to leave it in the discretion of the legislature to apportion the judicial power between the supreme and inferior courts according to the will of that body, it would certainly have been...

Book Description
Excerpt from Cases on American Constitutional Law In making this collection of cases, it was not my purpose to attempt to rival the notable collection of Professor Thayer. I have had the more modest design of bringing together within the compass of a single volume a sufficient number of the leading decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States on constitutional law to form the basis of a course in that subject. The so-called "case system" of study is applied to almost all branches of the law, but its application to constitutional law has been retarded by the obvious impracticability of referring a class to. the original reports and by the want of a suitable case book of moderate size. It is to meet such requirements that this collection has been formed. A work of this kind is.necessarily a compromise between the desirable and the attainable. The exigencies of space have compelled me to exclude numerous instructive decisions which many persons may expect to find and which I would have been glad to print. Tor the further economy of space, arguments have been omitted and the notes arc few. It seemed that the pages required for these features could be more profitably devoted to decisions which must otherwise be excluded. As to the text of the cases, all the decisions from December Term, 1855, (18 Howard), have been taken from the official reports. Cases decided before 18 Howard arc taken from Curtis' Decisions of tho Supreme Court of the United States.
