Reid on State v. Walker
If you have a little time to spend with this paper by Prof. Charles Reid, I highly recommend it. It's a historical treatment of a late-nineteenth century Kansas case which, Prof. Reid argues, was one of the first to grapple with some of the ideas of privacy which have since become watchwords of our substantive due process law. It's a long piece, and I haven't finished it yet, but it's well worth it and loaded with interesting historical nuggets.
