Wigmore writes: "The essays here collected are a rich revelation of a genius at once critical and constructive in the highest degree... No modern writer in that field has excelled him-and only one or two have equaled him-in mastery of the entire complex of Federal decisions and in firm grasp of constitutional principles." And of Schofield's style Wigmore raves: "Once entered upon his text the reader is carried along irresistibly by the sheer pleasure of following the reasoning. No modern law writer has a style at once so personal and yet so entirely scientific." Foreword vi, vii. Marke, A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University (1953) 402.

ISBN 1-58477-181-X. Cloth. $80. * State and federal courts have a long history of deeming statutes unconstitutional. Although there have been a number of treatises on the nature of judicial review, this volume treats the issue of the results of a statute deemed unconstitutional. "The varying meanings of the process of 'declaring a statute unconstitutional' or unenforceable, the meaning of 'unconstitutionality,' the legal effect of the tainted statute or its defective part, and of the decision branding it, are the subject matter of this scholarly and effective book."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume seeks to explain how American society, which had been capable of noble aspirations such as those in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, was capable of adopting one of the most widely deplored statutes of our history, the Sedition Act of 1798. It examines how the political ideals of the American Revolution were undermined by the adoption of repressive doctrines of the English monarchial system - the criminalization of criticism against the king, the Parliament, the judiciary, and Christianity. Freedom of speech was dramatically confined, and this law remained unchallenged until well into the twentieth century. This book will be of keen interest to all concerned with the early Republic, freedom of speech, and evolution of American constitutional jurisprudence. Because it addresses the much-criticized Sedition Act of 1798, one of the most dramatic illustrations of this repressive jurisprudence, the book will also be of interest to Americans concerned about preserving free speech in wartime.
