James Wilson, Patriot, and the Wilson Doctrine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781022126800)

This book examines the life and legacy of James Wilson, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and one of the primary framers of the US Constitution. It specifically focuses on Wilson's eponymous doctrine, which advocated for the importance of natural law in interpreting the Constitution. Through a detailed analysis of Wilson's speeches, writings, and legal opinions, Alexander argues that the Wilson Doctrine was ahead of its time and continues to offer valuable insights into the proper role of the judiciary in a democratic society.
