High Crimes and Misdemeanors: A History of Impeachment for the Age of Trump
by
Frank O Bowman III For the third time in forty-five years, the USA talks about
impeaching a president, this time its based on "Impeachment on a whim" rather than high crimes and misdemeanors. Full Story here: http://boomerspeaks.com/390804/index.html . "The impeachment provisions of the American
constitution are widely misunderstood. In High Crimes and Misdemeanors,
constitutional scholar Frank O. Bowman, III offers unprecedented clarity
to the question of impeachment, tracing its roots to medieval England
through its adoption in the Constitution and 250 years of American
experience. By examining the human and political history of those who
have faced impeachment, Bowman demonstrates that the Framers intended
impeachment to be a flexible tool, adaptable to the needs of any age.
Written in a lively, engaging style, the book combines a deep historical
and constitutional analysis of the impeachment clauses, a coherent
theory of when impeachment should be used to protect constitutional
order against presidential misconduct, and a comprehensive presentation
of the case for and against impeachment of President Trump. It is an
indispensable work for the present moment." Link to book: https://click.linksynergy.com/link?id=w2VGpneWfTE&offerid=189673.15017294968&type=2&murl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.alibris.com%2Fsearch%2Fbooks%2Fisbn%2F9781108481052 .
