Excellent In-Depth Survey of First Amendment Law

Read this book as part of my law school class in the First Amendment (before taking Constitutional Law) and found it to be well worth the price. First Amendment law can be confusing, and the Court has refined its many approaches over nearly a century of jurisprudence. If you are seriously interested in understanding the role the First Amendment plays in this nation's history, and are not put off by reading cases, you will find this book an impressive resource. I would not, however, recommend this book as an introduction for the general interest reader, as it organized thematically, rather than chronologically, and could very easily become boring.
