  • [T]he book is well researched, well written, and appears to be comprehensive. Specific topics of interest can be found with little trouble, which is always a good feature of a reference guide... The Alaska State Constitution is a thorough and interesting guide to constitutional law and politics in Alaska. More Important, it is part of a growing series that can contribute to a more complete understanding of American state constitutional politics, and constitutional politics more generally.
