The Burger Court

"Bernard Schwartz leaves a legacy of fascinating essays, compiled and edited with intellect, honesty, and perceptiveness."--Nina Totenberg, Legal Affairs Correspondent, National Public Radio and ABC Nightline "This book represents the last major work edited by the late Bernard Schwartz, whom Anthony Lewis once termed 'the most committed, productive legal scholar of our time.' Following The Warren Court: A Retrospective, it is the second volume of a trilogy that proposes to cover our last three Supreme Courts. Schwartz selected scholars, journalists, historians, and judges to present a view that is both composite and unique. From Garrow to Graglia, from Brennan to Bell, this book offers to practitioners, scholars, and jurists an examination of that most intriguing Court that separates the conflicting models of the Warren and Rehnquist benches."--Robert Henry "Bernard Schwartz leaves a legacy of fascinating essays, compiled and edited with intellect, honesty, and perceptiveness."--Nina Totenberg, Legal Affairs Correspondent, National Public Radio and ABC Nightline "This book represents the last major work edited by the late Bernard Schwartz, whom Anthony Lewis once termed 'the most committed, productive legal scholar of our time.'
