An index allows readers to compare different aspects of Georgia's eight constitutions, such as the composition of the General Assembly, the powers of the Governor, and the jurisdiction of the Courts. Based on extensive research of original sources, A Constitutional History of Georgia reveals the evolution of the Georgia constitution up to 1948 as a gradual expansion of political democracy.
