Constitutional Amendments: Beyond the Bill of Rights New series! Imagine a United States where women and African Americans are prohibited from voting, where the federal government allows one human being to enslave another or where some citizens are denied equal protection under the law. While many of our most fundamental liberties are protected by the Bill of Rights, the amendments that followed have significantly broadened and enhanced the rights of American citizens. Such rights may be taken for granted today, but when the amendments were ratified, many were considered groundbreaking and proved to be explosively controversial. Building on the popularity of its Bill of Rights series (see reverse side), Greenhaven Press® now extends the coverage with Constitutional Amendments: Beyond the Bill of Rights. Delivering clarification and context Constitutional Amendments: Beyond the Bill of Rights 1st Ed. 2009 Grade level: 10–12+ Book size: 6” x 9” Page count: 128–160 per volume The first six volumes in this continuing series cover such topics as women’s suffrage, due process and the abolition of slavery. Every volume begins with the amendment text (accompanied by a reader-friendly translation). Chapters then put the amendment into historical context, examine how it has been tested in the courts and present current controversies and debates. Reflecting provisions in both the national and state curriculum standards, these volumes provide primary and secondary sources that examine the roots of America’s constitutional democracy as well as how the interpretation of the Constitution has evolved throughout American history.
