Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compendium of 11 historical trials which were considered landmark cases in American history. Focusing on the period between 1795 and 1854, the author presents a collection of cases that are, to this day, studied and debated by legal scholars and historians. The trials included in this book provide a unique insight into legal thinking and practice in the United States from its nascent years as a republic to its adolescence as a nation poised for profound transformation. Whether it is the issue of treason and the extent to which freedom of speech is protected, the limits and nature of journalistic freedom, or the boundaries of the authority of the federal government, this book contains cases both famous and obscure that speak to these very issues. Through the author's prose, the reader will be transported to the heart of these legal battles, understanding the arguments, motivations, and consequences of these landmark rulings.
