About this book
Civil Government in the United States Considered with Some Reference to Its Origins is a book by John Fiske. The dedication addresses the little book to the many hundreds of young friends the author has found it so pleasant to meet in years past. A chapter outline lists, among other entries, Section 2 on the origin of English boroughs and cities, the borough as a hundred, and the Municipal Reform Act of 1835.
One passage says the state courts make a complete judiciary system, from top to bottom independent of the federal courts, and that an appeal may be carried from a state court to a federal court in cases which are found to involve points of federal law. Appendix E is headed The Fundamental Orders of Connecticut, 1638(9), and is described as the first written constitution that created a government.
