No Unreasonable Searches and Seizures: A Look at the Third and Fourth Amendments

By Rachael Morlock

Back in the late 1700s, some of the states only ratified the new U.S. Constitution with the provision that lawmakers add a Bill of Rights. In this book, readers will discover how the Third and Fourth Amendments earned inclusion in the Bill of Rights. Complicated political language is simplified, helping readers recognize the amendments at work in modern life. Both amendments reflect the fundamental American values of privacy and personal property. They protect homes, belongings, and even phone conversations. Primary sources, engaging images, and sidebars explore the evolving interpretation of the Third and Fourth Amendments. Student readers will close this book with a new understanding of how these amendments affect young people today.
