Hints American States Nation United States Supreme Court America
And the American record is not only comprehensive; it is immense. It embraces not only the record of the colonial era and of the Nation since 1776, but of the present fifty States as well, and the intricate network of relationships between States and Nation. Thus, to take a very elementary example, the reports of the United States Supreme Court fill some 350 volumes, and the reports of some States are almost equally voluminous: the reader who wants to trace the history of law in America is confronted with over 5,000 stout volumes of legal cases.
美国历史不仅复杂而且繁多。它不仅包括殖民时代的记载和国家从1776年开始的记载,而且包括当前50个州和各州与联邦之间错综复杂关系的记载。一个非常明显的例子,联邦最高法院判例汇编有350册以上,州法院判例汇编几乎同样多。想要探索美国法律历史的人面对的是5000多巨册的法律案例。
