  • "In The Life of the Law, Alfred Knight gives us a "biography" of our legal tradition, from its beginnings in English common law up to the present day. He tells the story by focusing on the key individuals, and the pivotal cases, that have helped to mold the law as we know it today. We meet, among others, Aaron Burr on trial for treason, Earl Warren striking down school segregation, and two different juries trying to do justice in the case of Rodney King."
