Overview
The impeachment process is one of the most serious government proceedings in the United States. It can result in the trial and conviction of a U.S. president or other official and immediate removal from office. Despite all the drama, intrigue, and gravity that surround this remarkable judicial process, impeachment is not well understood by most Americans. The Impeachment Process is an invaluable new guide that traces the history of the process from its roots in the English parliament in the fourteenth century to the modern-day United States. This book also dispels common myths while setting forth a clear definition of what it means for an American president to be impeached.Synopsis
