The Essentials of American Constitutional Law, by Francis Newton Thorpe, Professor of Political Science and Constitutional Law in the University of Pittsburgh. G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1917, pp. 279. This is a very readable presentation of the fundamental principles of Constitutional law. "Readable" is used advisedly because the book is written for readers rather than students of the subject. It is more a statement of principles than an exposition of their particular application. Furthermore, the principles as stated are less those which are expressed by the courts as the bases of decisions than those which inductive analysis shows to be …

The legal profession is to be congratulated that men of the great erudition of Dean Wigmore and the editors associated with him are devoting themselves so unselfishly to the heavy labor of presenting in fitting English form the masterpieces of continental legal literature. Though much may be said about the insufficiency of translations as a basis of scholarly work in -any subject, the fact remains that the great bulk of the legal profession, even those of a scholarly habit of mind, have not the linguistic ability necessary to use the original sources of knowledge. On the other hand the need …

This work, which is practically an annotated and well arranged selection of extracts from leading cases and from the rules laid down and followed by various railroad commissions and public service companies, puts in extremely convenient form a great deal of very valuable material.
