Introduction: The American Legal History Podcast

This podcast will trace the history and evolution of American Law from its most ancient roots, through the birth of the Common Law in medieval England, the early colonial and revolutionary era, through the early days of the Supreme Court, the Civil War years, the tumultuous twentieth century, and on to the present day. Although legal theory and philosophy will be discussed it is not a podcast on jurisprudence. The entire podcast should have about 60 installments, with each episode approximately 30 minutes in length.
