On Treason A Citizen’s Guide to the Law – Free Full Audiobook
On Treason is a history book by author Carlton F. W. Larson.

Despite the Article’s apparent simplicity, Larson demonstrates that it is a form of constitutional quicksand in which clear intuitions are often far from the goal.

On Treason is an indispensable guide for anyone wanting to understand this fundamental aspect of our legal system. With a brief, accessible look at the history and implications of this law, Larson makes clear who’s really guilty – and listeners won’t need a law degree to understand why.
