Davis, Horace A. The Judicial Veto. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1914. vi, 148 pp. Reprinted 2002 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. LCCN 2001045982. ISBN 1-58477-212-3. Cloth. $60. To support his view that judicial review is not a branch of jurisprudence, and that the constitutionality of statutes is a political rather than a legal function, Davis offers three essays: "Extra-Constitutional Review," which lays out his argument in terms of the political activity of the time, "Judicial Review," an essay in which he offers solutions and "Annulment of Legislation by the Supreme Court," an historical study of the origin of the concept of judicial review in the Court.
