It is full of wit and wisdom and shrewd insights, and the chapters read like short plays.": Louis Auchincloss.

Although he restricts his focus to the federal level, he considers state cases in some detail and includes an appendix that lists cases in which state enactments were declared unconstitutional because of their confl ict with the federal constitution. Moore also discusses early attitudes of state courts before Marbury v. Madison and the attitudes of federal courts after that decision.
