About the book

"46 facsimiles of documents, historical background for the documents, and 10 lesson plans that trace the history of the Bill of Rights and the evolution of liberties protected by the great charter. Students trace the ratification process and debate whether the Bill of Rights should have been part of the Constitution or amendments to it. They evaluate the constitutionality of gun control, the Miranda decision, and World War II internment of Japanese Americans. They compare and contrast Supreme Court cases in 1887 and 1987 and forecast those that might arise in 2087. Among the documents are official correspondence, petitions, legislative proceedings, newspaper articles, and visual materials."--Description from National Archives website.
