Interesting. With a title like that I first thought you were citing some 19th century or earlier text, but it was originally published in 2006. I'm also kind of surprised, but not, to see the book retailing on Amazon for $250! It seems like books "they" don't want easily accessible are often priced much higher than usual. Again, I don't know if the author has been trained as a lawyer. I'm not trained in the law either but I know enough to see how current U.S. jurisprudence deviates from what the Founders instituted. Given this divergence from then until now, I question how much the common law and natural law plays a role in today's American courts.
