On Impeachment is a short, accessible collection of key historic writings about presidential impeachment, offered as part of a new Penguin Classics series on liberty and constitutional rights.

A Penguin Classic

On Impeachment is part of the Penguin Liberty series by Penguin Classics, which invites readers to explore the U.S. Constitution's text and values. Alongside American history and the insights of some of the country's most influential thinkers, this collection provides the best explanations of our constitutional ideals of liberty.

Through these curated anthologies of historical, political, and legal classic texts, Penguin Liberty offers everyday citizens the opportunity to engage with the strongest defenses of these ideals. Readers can involve themselves in constitutional interpretation and appreciate anew the values that have long inspired the nation.

Questions of liberty infiltrate both our daily lives and our country’s values, from the freedom of speech to the right to marry, how society views us to how we determine our leaders. It is a profound privilege to live under a Constitution that not only protects our liberty but also allows us to debate its definition.
