The complete text of each law or ordinance is included, along with occasional notes about its history and the extent to which it was enforced.Other relevant information found in the volume ranges widely: the texts of various Supreme Court rulings; international documents; federal government executive orders, departmental rules, regulations, and directives; legislation related to aliens and Native Americans; and more.In his introduction Davison M.
