Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stuart Banner's The Most Powerful Court in the World is an authoritative history of the United States Supreme Court from the Founding era to the present. Not merely a history of the Court's opinions and jurisprudence, it is also a rich account of the Court in the broadest sense--of the sorts of people who become justices and the methods by which they are chosen, of how the Court does its work, and of its relationship with other branches of government. Rather than praising or criticizing the Court's decisions, Banner makes the case that one cannot fully understand the decisions without knowing about the institution that produced them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curtis, Benjamin R. A Memoir of Benjamin Robbins Curtis, LL.D. with some of his Professional and Miscellaneous Writings. Boston: Little Brown, and Company, 1879. Two volumes. Illustrated. Reprinted 2002 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-235-2. Cloth. $175. * Edited by his son of the same name [1855-1891], the first volume being a memoir by his brother, the author George Ticknor Curtis [1812-1894], the second containing selections from his writings. Benjamin Robbins Curtis [1809-1874], an eminent Massachusetts jurist, was appointed to the United States Supreme Court in 1851 where he achieved his greatest fame in 1857 by his dissenting opinion in the Dred Scott case. Curtis argued in a lengthy opinion that residence of a slave with his owner in free territory conferred freedom that the slave could vindicate on his return to slave territory. He claimed also that the Court could not try the case because a slave was not considered a citizen. After resigning his seat after a series of acrimonious disputes about the case with Chief Justice Taney, he achieved eminence as an attorney, one who was esteemed for his dignity, coolness, and clear, logical mind. Indeed, he was considered one of the leaders of the American Bar, arguing fifty-four cases before the Supreme Court and eighty before the supreme court of Massachusetts. The impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson, in which he served as the president's leading counsel, was perhaps his finest hour. Many considered his opening statement for the defense to be his greatest forensic effort. The second volume consists of reprints of his articles and a selection of his addresses and judicial statements. See Dictionary of American Biography 610-611.

Book excerpt: Historian and Constitution expert David O. Stewart recaps the landmark impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson. “The fullest recounting we have of the high politics of that immediate post-Civil War period...Stewart’s graceful style and storytelling ability make for a good read.” —The Washington Post In 1868 Congress impeached President Andrew Johnson of Tennessee, the man who had succeeded the murdered Lincoln, bringing the nation to the brink of a second civil war. Enraged to see the freed slaves abandoned to brutal violence at the hands of their former owners, distraught that former rebels threatened to regain control of Southern state governments, and disgusted by Johnson's brawling political style, congressional Republicans seized on a legal technicality as the basis for impeachment -- whether Johnson had the legal right to fire his own secretary of war, Edwin Stanton. The fiery but mortally ill Congressman Thaddeus Stevens of Pennsylvania led the impeachment drive, abetted behind the scenes by the military hero and president-in-waiting, General Ulysses S. Grant. The Senate trial featured the most brilliant lawyers of the day, along with some of the least scrupulous, while leading political fixers maneuvered in dark corners to save Johnson's presidency with political deals, promises of patronage jobs, and even cash bribes. Johnson escaped conviction by a single vote. David Stewart, the author of the highly acclaimed The Summer of 1787, the bestselling account of the writing of the Constitution, challenges the traditional version of this pivotal moment in American history. Rather than seeing Johnson as Abraham Lincoln's political heir, Stewart explains how the Tennessean squandered Lincoln's political legacy of equality and fairness and helped force the freed slaves into a brutal form of agricultural peonage across the South. When the clash between Congress and president threatened to tear the nation apart, the impeachment process substituted legal combat for violent confrontation. Both sides struggled to inject meaning into the baffling requirement that a president be removed only for "high crimes and misdemeanors," while employing devious courtroom gambits, backstairs spies, and soaring rhetoric. When the dust finally settled, the impeachment process had allowed passions to cool sufficiently for the nation to survive the bitter crisis.
