This publication provides a student with an understanding of 15 leading U.S. constitutional law cases, focusing on how the litigation was shaped by lawyers, judges and socioeconomic factors, and why the cases have attained landmark status. It is suitable for adoption as a supplement in an introductory constitutional law course, or as a text for an advanced seminar.
This probably sounds like it would be the most boring book ever, but actually, it's pretty cool. The "Stories" series of books focuses on the individuals behind the big cases more than on the legal aspects of the decisions. It's dense reading, but interesting.
