An excellent reference

This book has valued my constitutional research more than any other document that I have had the priviledge of reading. Each section (and in some cases each clause) of the governing document of our nation, is clarified in an organized fashion. Said clarification also includes references to major Supreme Court decisions. The book also includes a list of fifty of the major Supreme Court rulings of the last 225 years. The Supreme Court, being the final word on Constitutional interpretation is essential to a book of this nature; however, Mr. Vile's list of cases does leave a bit to be desired. His description of the cases are, in my opinion, far to short, and it is for that reason alone that I can't give the book 5 stars. If you need a reference of Supreme Court decisions, look elsewhere, but if you want an excellent reference for the "meat" of the United States Constitution, and also a detailed description and analysis of each of the 27 amendments, it is without hesitation that I commend this book to your consideration.
