Private Property and the Constitution

Reviews / Votes

"Huffman's fine book applies keen scholarship infused with personal experience to provide a cogent and compelling justification for property rights. Court opinions and academic writing have long suffered from obtuse reasoning that removed constitutional protection from one of the rights most essential to a free society. Huffman exposes the fallacies in this reasoning and explains what is needed to restore property rights to their proper place under the Constitution." William H. Mellor, President and General Counsel, Institute for Justice, USA

"Armed with a lifetime of thinking, writing, and teaching about property rights, Huffman draws it all together here with a thorough and systematic analysis of his subject. Readers will leave this book armed for the battles that lie ahead to restore the right that is the very foundation of our liberties." Roger Pilon, Vice President for Legal Affairs, Director, Center for Constitutional Studies, Cato Institute, USA
