4.0 out of 5 stars I am a law student and used this book to learn judicial rev.
As a law student judicial review and the case of Marbury v Madison seemed very complicated. When I saw david devillers book I picked it up and started reading. He made the entire case and concepts easy to understand. I wish my law professors could have done the same.

3.0 out of 5 stars Kick but court cases
Briefly this book is about court cases. It is about Supreme Court cases. Marbury wanted Madison to bring him the commission. But Madison refuse to do so. So Marbury took this problem to the Supreme Court. So the Supreme court charge Madison with treason.

I did not like this book because it did not give me enough information. It was boring in the begining...

If you teach American history to your students, this book is an absolute MUST. If you have had trouble keeping your students awake for MvM, your problem is solved. Devillers has found a way to explain this most important foundational case in a way that will not only wake your students up, but will also light a fire in them to learn more about history and law.
