Understanding the histories of civilizations, origins of law and our modern evolving social contract with government has always held my interest- especially in today’s shifting environment of political law.  As such, I have continued to pursue a liberal arts classical education post under-grad.  I fully agree with Abraham Lincoln when he said, “Let reverence for the laws be breathed by every American mother to the lisping babe that prattles on her lap. Let it be taught in the schools, in seminaries, and in colleges.  Let it be written in primers, spelling books and in almanacs.  Let it be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice.”     I love Richard Maybury's ability to share the evolution and application of law in an easy to understand format - especially its applicability today for our upcoming generations of leaders!  By adding the Power Point, current event articles and reflective application questions,  I know visual learners will more easily understand and evaluate their place in our fluctuating social contract and the role government plays in its success.  I have legal experience in real estate tax law through the Virginia office of James W. Elliott, Esquire and recommendations if necessary.
