Présentation de l'éditeur

The subject of the present book has for many years been of interest to the writer. Long ago, while still a young lawyer, I was in some way drawn to a study of the judiciary in relation to the Constitution; and under the same title as that which now, late in life, I am placing upon this book, I wrote the second of a series of law articles, to the writing of which ill-health and a dearth of practice had directed me. I may without vanity say that, prior to the publication of the article in question in 1885, there was but the most insufficient treatment of the subject to be found. VK ent spages, and those of Story, Cooley, and the other writers, would have been searched in vain for any valid sketch of its history, either in the Federal Convention or in the early cases in which it was applied or hinted at. As my studies preparatory to the article went on at the time in question, I was surprised at the number of cases in point which I found; but it must not be supposed that these were easily unearthed from the dust of a century. The indices to the old and oddly printed reports of that long-ago day were of no assistance. There was, then, never, or rarely, an index-heading of American Law Review (M arch-A pril, 1885), Vol. XIX, pp. 175-203.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
