The Forgotten Presidents: Their Untold Constitutional Legacy
Gerhardt, Michael J. (Professor of Law, Professor of Law, University of North Carolina)
In The Constitutional Legacy of Forgotten Presidents, eminent constitutional scholar Michael Gerhardt tells the stories of thirteen presidents whom most Americans do not remember and scholars think had no constitutional impact, among them Chester Arthur, Martin Van Buren, and William Howard Taft. As Gerhardt shows, our forgotten presidents played crucial roles in laying some of the groundwork followed by Lincoln and other modern presidents, as well asproviding examples for future lawmakers of constitutional choices to avoid.
