Description

Book Synopsis
In the wake of Watergate, Gerald Ford appointed eminent lawyer and scholar Edward H Levi to the post of attorney general - and thus gave him the onerous task of restoring legitimacy to a discredited Department of Justice. This title features Levi's speeches that offer a sense of the man and his work.

Trade Review
"It was Edward H. Levi's first and overwhelming task as attorney general to end the cynicism of Watergate. This wonderful collection of his speeches shows how he did it: with eloquent words that expressed his profound belief in American values. In our time of meanness and strife, Levi reminds us what we should be." (Anthony Lewis)"
