Board of Education and the Civil Rights Movement and Unfinished Business: Racial Equality in American History, which is part of Oxford’s Inalienable Rights series.  In 2012, he published From the Closet to the Altar: Courts, Backlash, and the Struggle for Same-Sex Marriage. In 2016, Professor Klarman published The Framers’ Coup: The Making of the U.S. Constitution (Oxford University Press), which is a comprehensive, revisionist interpretation of the drafting and ratification of the U.S. Constitution.
