In The Arizona State Constitution, John D. Leshy provides a comprehensive history of Arizona's constitutional development. Adopted at the height of the progressive movement, the Constitution contains many progressive innovations. Leshy describes these along with the dramatic changes the state has undergone in subsequent decades. He also includes a section-by-section commentary which crisply discusses the evolution and interpretation of each section, including significant court decisions. This second edition has been significantly updated to capture the trends of constitution-making and interpretation through the one hundredth year of Arizona's statehood and provides an essential reference guide for readers who seek a rich account of Arizona's constitutional evolution.
