Federal Tax Research Guide

The Foundation Press Law Stories Series brings landmark cases to life by telling the true, never-before-heard stories behind the cases. Editor Paul Caron and the general editors of each edition discuss the immediate impact of cases and document the continuing importance of the cases in shaping the law. Caron's Tax Stories explores the historical contexts of seminal U.S. Supreme court federal income tax cases and the role they continue to play in our current tax law. Each of the chapters sets forth the social, factual, and legal background of the case and discusses various court proceedings and judicial opinions.

Experienced tax lawyers, those new to tax law, and academics alike will benefit from this accessible book, that provides a nuts-and-bolts approach in solving specific problems that arise in everyday tax practice. The author provides insight and practical tips on all aspects of federal tax controversies, from audit (examination) through the administrative appeals process and subsequent litigation, and on to collection (enforcement) issues.
