John Marshall (c. &#; ), was the fourth and arguably the most influential Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court (). Marshall holds the record as the longest serving Chief Justice in U.S. history. During his thirty-four years on the bench he helped lay the foundation of the U.S. Supreme Court as an equal branch to the U.S. government&#;alongside the legislative and executive branches&#;especially focusing on reinforcing the principle of judicial review.[1]

The Life of George Washington
Mr. Marshall lived at the same time as Washington and was with the Continental Army as a Virginia militiaman during the entire campaign, including that winter at Valley Forge. The language is that in use by the educated man of the eighteenth century; consequently, it can be difficult reading. He also named many of the officers involved without always indicating whether they were British or American. This also makes it hard to wade through. But the payoff to your perseverance is a very detailed understanding of what was at stake and the personalities and motivations of the combatants.
