Excerpt from The Railroads and the Commerce Clause
So much attention having been attracted to the subject of railroad legislation by the passage of the Interstate Commerce Act, and the litigation it has given rise to, and by the active steps taken in many States toward the regulation of railroads, it occurred to the author that the time was ripe for a work on the constitutional relations of the rail roads to the National government, especially as those relations grow out of and are defined by the Commerce Clause. In investigating this subject the author soon came to the conclusion, that this work would be incomplete if it did not also contain a consideration of the reciprocal effects of the National and State powers over railroads.
