The Papers of John Marshall: Volume VIII: Correspondence, Papers, and Selected Judicial Opinions, March 1814-December 1819

Herbert Alan Johnson,Charles T Cullen,Institute of Early American History and Culture (Williamsburg Va )

The 1819 term of the Supreme Court stands preeminent in John Marshall’s chief justiceship as the year of three major constitutional pronouncements: Dartmouth College v. Woodward, Sturgis v. Crowninshield, and McCulloch v. Maryland. This volume, covering 1814 to 1819, reproduces these and other important Marshall opinions given in the Supreme Court and the U.S. Circuit Court for Virginia. Also included are a series of essays Marshall wrote to answer critics of the McCulloch v. Maryland decision. In addition to papers concerning judicial business, this volume includes personal correspondence that sheds light on Marshall’s private interests and family life.
