A comprehensive collection of essays covering nearly 1,000 rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court and other federal and state courts.

This third edition of U.S. Court Cases, first published in 1999 with a second edition in 2010, pulls together essays from more than a dozen Salem reference works, greatly expanding what may be the largest collection of articles on individual court cases available in any compact reference work. Reviewers of past editions noted that the fact that the set drew its essays from a large number of different resource sets, including the Encyclopedia of the U.S. Supreme Court and the Great Events from History series, gave it a special value.
