Not only is the right to trial by jury outlined in the Constitution, it’s also the focus of the Sixth and Seventh Amendments. Why was trial by jury so important to America’s founders? How have juries changed since the 18th century? Why are jury trials becoming rarer? This book provides the answers with evidence from historic documents and events. Engaging main text and sidebars interpret the amendments, dissect relevant Supreme Court decisions, and follow the history of American juries. Readers will be empowered to judge the merits of the Sixth and Seventh Amendments for themselves.
