Description

In Federal Justice in Western Missouri, Lawrence H. Larsen masterfully combines legal and historical research to offer the first systematic, full-scale study of a federal district court. Larsen's stimulating analysis of federal courts at work over the course of nearly 150 years, as well as his treatment of the individual judges who were dedicated to dispensing justice, conveys the extent of the sweeping changes that have occurred in the role and scope of the United States government and its courts. Attorneys, jurists, and legal scholars, as well as anyone with an interest in Missouri history, will relish this important work.
