The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution

by Kevin R.C. Gutzman ·  2007
★★★★★Editor's Pickbeginner

Gutzman argues that the federal judiciary has systematically distorted the Constitution, substituting its own preferences for the Founders' actual intentions. He reclaims the original meaning of the Commerce Clause, the 10th Amendment, and the Bill of Rights from decades of judicial activism.

★ Why We Recommend It

This is one of the most important works in the liberty tradition — essential for any serious student of free markets and individual rights.
