"In this book, Russell Caplan has provided the first modern
scholarly volume on the national constitutional convention
contemplated in article V. It is an extremely useful addition to
the literature of constitutional change."--Constitutional
Commentary
"An invaluable, informative volume on a troubling, increasingly
important question....Notes, bibliography, and index are an
excellent apparatus in this stimulating volume. Highly recommended
for all levels."--Choice
"[H]is very readable style makes his careful research accessible to
a broad academic audience."--Millennium
"Thoroughly researched, lucid, engagingly written. Caplan has an
amazing grasp of both the historical antecedents of Article V and
the current political realities of the convention resolution
battle. It is 'must' reading for those who have been lured into the
'runaway convention' trap."--Lewis K. Uhler, President, The
National Tax-Limitation Committee
"An excellent and timely book. The author raises the key
considerations that would inform future debates over calls for a
constitutional convention. This makes a significant contribution to
public law as studied by political scientists, historians, and law
school professors. Highly readable and accessible to students and
scholars."--David O'Brien, University of Virginia
