About
A classic classroom reference since its 1964 publication, this volume offers the full text of Magna Carta in English, as well as a chapter-by-chapter discussion of its history and provisions.
In his newly revised commentary on this founding document in the history of constitutionally limited governments, A. E. Dick Howard places the charter in the context of the extraordinary surge of constitutionalism in the aftermath of the Cold War. Magna Carta: Text and Commentary is a cogent introduction to Magna Carta that students everywhere can readily appreciate.
