Synopsis
Students in American government, civics, multicultural studies, law, U.S. history and journalism classes, as well as general researchers seeking information on major U.S. court decisions that have had a significant impact on American society should consult Great American Court Cases. This new resource from the Gale Group, while focusing primarily on Supreme Court cases, also includes major federal or state cases that set precedents. The 4-vol. set contains approximately 800 cases, organized by broad legal principles, then arranged alphabetically under the more specific legal issue.
