To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The most original and valuable feature of the whole instrument was the crea tion of the federal judiciary. The powers of the United States Supreme Court under the Constitution make it the most august and powerful tribunal ever established by man. In stead of following the English system of government which, with its unwritten constitution, makes Parliament supreme, the fathers of the republic established a government strictly limited in its powers by a written constitution, and created a court ...with jurisdiction to declare null and void any act of Congress or of the Legislature of any State which should con travene any of its provisions. This novel feature alone en titles our Constitution to rank as the greatest product of con structive statesmanship that the world has ever known. Although Marshall was not a member of the Federal Con vention, he was a delegate to the Constitutional Convention in Virginia in 1788 which was called to ratify or reject the 15 proposed Constitution, and was largely instrumental in chang ing what was first an adverse majority into a minority of ten.
