Charles F. Hobson

The Great Chief Justice: John Marshall and the Rule of Law

Hardcover (Univ Pr of Kansas Sept. 1, 1996) , First Edition edition
Clarifies the thrust of Marshall's jurisprudence while keeping in sight the man as well as the jurist. Argues that Marshall was not an ideologue intent in appropriating the lawmaking powers of Congress, but rather was deeply committed to a principled jurisprudence based on a science of law steeped in the common law tradition.
