Best Con law supplement I have read. I used this before I took Con Law when I was doing research for a professor and I found it so helpful. I wanted to keep reading it because it was so well written it made the law and history come to life, yet it was quick reading (and I am a slow reader! Which means case books can be a nightmare for me!) Easier to manage than his treatise which is 4 or 5 volumes! I find it be a good balance of the "basics" for when you feel clueless or you want to skim/review and also digging deeper when you know the material but what to "round it out" to make sure your grasp is firm. It goes in depth, but not so much that you feel like you are going down some rabbit hole that will ultimately be irrelevant to your final. I read this every week or so because I hate my casebook, and I feel like it never goes too far off but also doesn't just skim the surface like some supplements that don't challenge you or add to your understanding at all.This came highly recommended to me by a professor and several students. I thank them very much, it has been one of the best supplements of any subject, and I used a lot my 1L year (my law school teaches Con law your 2L year) esp as I work in the law library, I tried a lot out.I wish this was our case book. I think, at least for how my con law class is taught (which is not case book specific, per se), I could read this supplement and not even open the case book and still ace the class. Not that I would suggest that for everyone, but that is how much I value this supplement.
