Book Reviews of The Constitution in Exile: How the Federal Government Has Seized Power by Rewriting the Supreme Law of the Land
Book Review: Well Organized, Well Presented. Very enjoyable. Worth reading a couple of times.
Summary: 5 Stars
An EXCELLENT book for anybody who is interested in American History and Politics. It definately takes an ideoloigical bias towards a very conservative view of the founders, but it uses this lens in an attempt to illustrate how our constitution really has no relevance anymore. Napolitano documents very well the supreme court cases and legislation that mark the path by which our constitution was "exiled". The level at which this book is written means it can be read by most anyone, but those with particular interest would be students who are currently studying a course in politics, or history. It is an excellent supplement to learning about important issues in American life and the court cases that shaped our history. I would suggest it to both liberals and conservatives, but liberals should be aware that he does take a very consistent approach that could get on your nerves at times if you aren't used to "reading books you don't agree with". Conservatives might be suprised by his opposition to any laws regarding culture war issues, for example, Don't Ask Don't Tell. Napolitano is less a contemporary conservative and much more a "constitutionalist".
