APPENDIX B.

BIBLIOGRAPHY.

The following bibliography includes the full titles of the chief works used in the preparation of the study of this subject. This list is intended as a bibliography of the general subject of amendments to the Constitution of the United States, and not of any one or more of the fifteen amendments now a part of the Constitution. It does not appear that any formal treatise on this subject has been published. A short report of a committee of the New York Bar Association, which reviews the proposed amendments presented in the House of Representatives during a limited term of years, and two excellent brief articles by Prof. James Bach McMaster, cited below, are the only discussions known to the writer. With the exception of the Commentaries on the Constitution, there are no secondary authorities. Even in the Commentaries there is little, apart from the discussion of the method of amendment and the interpretation of the amendments which are now a part of the Constitution. For the necessary material the writer has been almost entirely dependent upon the journals and other official publications of Congress. Most of the works included in this list were mainly useful in connecting particular propositions with the political history of the time.
