Lively and engaging account
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Considering that most treatments of the subject are dry tomes, this is an account of the long efforts by many Americans to secure our Constitutional rights to free speech and free published accounts of ideas in the press. A real advantage of this book is its use of stories behind the legal cases that make it lively and engaging to read. At the same time, it is solid in its research and presentation of the legal merits of the cases. A great presentation of the subject for most readers.
