Bottom of spine slightly bumped, bottom page edges lightly soiled. $20. * The professional behavior of lawyers was a topic that attracted a good deal of attention during the nineteenth century. It was examined directly in bar rules, essays and books and indirectly in biographies, histories, testimonials and funeral orations. Despite the quality and range of this literature, some of it produced by such eminent jurists as Joseph Story and David Dudley Field, it is mostly forgotten today. This is due in part to the assumption that these writings are out of date. It is also difficult to locate many of the finest examples. Compiled from a broad array of scarce materials, Sources on the History of the American Law of Lawyering invites a reappraisal of the history of lawyering during the nineteenth century and addresses topics on legal ethics and professional behavior that are as relevant today as they were in the nineteenth century.

Anthology of Nineteenth Century American Legal Poetry. xvii, 281 pp. Clark, NJ: Talbot Publishing (an imprint of The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.), 2017. ISBN-13: 9781616195489. ISBN-10: 1616195487. Hardcover. New. $59.95 * Despite the demands of a practice undertaken without today's modern conveniences--and electricity--many 19th century lawyers and judges in America found the time, and had the inclination, to write poetry. A good deal of it was about the law-clients, cases, trials-even law books-and the affairs of the day. Other poems address timeless themes such as nature, faith and illness. Some were meant to be humorous. Edited by Michael H. Hoeflich, an expert on 19th century American legal practice, this collection, which includes poems by President John Quincy Adams and Supreme Court Justices Joseph Story and Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., and a few laymen with an interest in law, offers a window into life in 19th century America as reflected in the practice of law, which by its very nature is entwined in so many stages of life. Includes poetry by John Quincy Adams, David Barker, Irving Browne, William Allen Butler, Francis Dana, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., Sidney Lanier, John Pierpont, George D. Prentice, John Godfrey Saxes, Joseph Story, William Wetmore Story, Eugene Fitch Ware, and many others. MICHAEL H. HOEFLICH is the John H. & John M.

ISBN-13: 9781616195724. ISBN-10: 161619572X. Hoeflich, Michael H. and William Skepnek, Co-Editors. Representative Opinions of Justice Antonin Scalia. xxiv, 474 pp. Clark, New Jersey: Talbot Publishing (an imprint of The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.), 2018. ISBN-13: 9781616195724. ISBN-10: 161619572X. Hardcover. New. $75. * During his thirty years on the United States Supreme Court, the late United States Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia left an indelible impression not just for his influential conservative opinions, quick intellect and larger-than-life presence, but for the clarity and grace of his judicial writing style. In this volume the editors have collected some of his most provocative and well-written representative opinions and offer analytic introductions to each set of opinions. They include Scalia's opinions in the areas of constitutional structure, structure and procedures of the judiciary, fundamental rights and freedoms, rights of the accused, and statutory and treaty interpretation. The book also includes three of Justice Scalia's important concurrences. Each chapter contains an introduction by the editors. Scalia's writings are appreciated as exceptional among judicial opinions not just for the clear reasoning of his legal decisions and viewpoint, but for his sometimes witty, always accessible and carefully chosen language. An index to books cited by Scalia offers us the sources of his study on the given opinion. With a general index.
