As Patrick Henry said during one of his famous speeches before the Virginia House of Burgesses in March of 1773: “I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past.” In other words, history can be a great teacher. It is the goal of McCallister Publications to provide a series of books and writings that use historical precedent to explain current issues in American law and politics.
