Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book 12 mo., hardcover, name on inside cover (of President Taft's relative, Igor Blake) else fine in fine b & w pictorial dj with photo of President Taft on cover. Newspaper clipping laid in re. President Taft went on to the high court, and Hillary couldl find it a place to park her husband. Foreword by H. Jefferson Powell. 177 pp. Taft is the only individual to have served as both the President and the Chief Justice of the United States of America. In the years between the two appointments, Taft taught law at Yale University and gave a series of lectures in which he reflected on the theory and the practices of the presidential office. Taft's lectures have long been out of print, but are now available with a new foreword, introduction and endnotes by constitutional law scholar H. Jefferson Powell. Powell shows how Taft used his lectures to deftly and humorously reply to the criticisms of his predecessor, Theodore Roosevelt, and the pretensions of his successor, Woodrow Wilson.
