Here one of our most distinguished constitutional scholars, the Pulitzer Prizewinning Leonard Levy, brings his formidable skills to bear in tracing the development of what many great legal minds have called the Palladium of Justice. Recounting this history with his characteristic clarity, vigor, and elegance of expression, Mr. Levy has given us a brilliant and useful summary of one of our most cherished freedoms. Incisively, thoroughly, and thoughtfullyas always Leonard Levy offers historical meaning and understanding to one of our most basic rights. Stanley I. Kutler
