The impeachment process is one of the most serious government proceedings in the United States. It can result in the trial and conviction of a U.S. president and immediate removal from office. Despite all the drama, intrigue, and gravity that surround this remarkable judicial process, impeachment is not well-understood by most Americans. ""The Impeachment Process"" is an invaluable new guide that dispels the most common myths about the process while setting forth a clear definition of what it means for a president to be impeached. Features such as full-color photographs, sidebars, a glossary, suggestions for further reading, and an index enhance the readable text, making the complex mechanisms of the impeachment process accessible to readers.
