Rogers considers it to be ""...the real source of his [Cooley's] fame. This book originated from the need of introducing a course on Constitutional Law in the school... The text was developed as a basis for lectures... His discussion attained immediate fame and his views and suggestions practically dominated American Constitutional Law...
Like Blackstone, Pomeroy and many other legal works, the influence of Constitutional Limitations rests partly upon literary qualities, upon clarity and grace of unaffected statement."": Rogers, James G., American Bar Leaders 70 cited in Marke, A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University (1953) 396.
Referring also to Cooley's General Principles of Constitutional Law in the United States (1880), Walker declares that these ""...are classics, and he ranks with Story among the foremost commentators on the Constitution."" Walker, Oxford Companion to Law 288. The Lawbook Exchange has also published a reprint of the fifth and final authorial edition.
