What a great and succinct book on the first amendment and its history. Reading books like these always re-invigorates my passion for the principles of freedom of speech, thought inquiry and expression. I would recommend this book to the first amendments greatest advocates as well as its greatest critics. It blows Make No Law out of the water, even though like Make No Law, the content of Freedom for the Thought that we Hate is much more tepid than its title.

This is a solid introduction to the history of the first amendment, and encourages the reader to delve further into the subject. I think it should be required reading for intro to American Government classes.
It's not exhaustive, but no single volume could be. As I said, it's an introduction, but a stirring one.

One of my favorite books ever! Makes you understand the American legal system better, and makes you proud to be an American.
