Last week, the Prairie Law Blog posted an entry regarding the 50th anniversary of the landmark Supreme Court case Gideon v. Wainwright. In that post, we suggested the title Gideon’s Trumpet by Anthony Lewis for further reading.
Lewis, a two-time Pulitzer prize winner and acclaimed legal journalist,
passed away on March 25, 2013. An obituary highlighting the life and
work of Anthony Lewis is available from the New York Times.
In addition to Gideon’s Trumpet, Lewis authored a history of another landmark Supreme Court case, New York Times v. Sullivan. That work is also available in the McKusick Law Library:
Make No Law: the Sullivan case and the First Amendment / Anthony Lewis
Several other titles by Anthony Lewis are available in the I.D. Weeks Library, including:
Portrait of a decade: the second American revolution / [by] Anthony Lewis and the New York Times
Freedom for the thought that we hate: a biography of the First Amendment / Anthony Lewis
