2.0 out of 5 stars Right Wing Christian Textbook, January 20, 2006
This review is from: Sir William Blackstone and the Common Law: Blackstone's Legacy to America (Paperback)
Stacey's book is a text from a series designed by evangelical Christians. I wouldn't have ordered it if I had known that, but this small book may still have some use as a brief introduction to Blackstone. It serves up an ideological view of the man the right-wingers are adopting as a founding father for their take on the Constitution. Read with a great grain of salt. Less than 100 pages of text.

1.0 out of 5 stars No stars for this simplistic ideologically slanted misrepresentation, March 19, 2006
This review is from: Sir William Blackstone and the Common Law: Blackstone's Legacy to America (Paperback)
If you've ever actually read Blackstone, you'd have to ask yourself what Stacey was drinking when he wrote this mess.

2.0 out of 5 stars Christianbooks.com?, February 7, 2006
This review is from: Sir William Blackstone and the Common Law: Blackstone's Legacy to America (Paperback)
I want to thank Mr. Kremer for altering me to ACW press. Put ACW Press in google and you get christianbooks.com, a press with a strange (and apparently right wing book) list. [When I went to the site, they were peddling a book about Saddam Hussein being an evil-doer extraordinaire--even if true, what does that have to do with Christianity? Nothing, of course--it's just right-wing justification for Bush's disastrous unneccessary war.]
