Legal history

Hardcover. Provides a survey of the history and background of Lochner versus New York. This title argues that the decision was well grounded in precedent - and that modern constitutional jurisprudence owes at least as much to the limited-government ideas of Lochner proponents as to the more expansive vision of its Progressive opponents.
