Reconstructing the Fourth Amendment: A History of Search and Seizure, 1789-1868
Andrew E. Taslitz

He presents two arguments, first, the original Fourth Amendment served important political functions and secondly, the Amendment's meaning changed when the Fourteenth Amendment was created to give teeth to outlawing slavery.
