{"product_id":"john-marshall-the-man-who-made-the-supreme-court","title":"John Marshall: The Man Who Made the Supreme Court","description":"The life of John Marshall, Founding Father and America's premier chief justice.\n\nIn 1801, a genial and brilliant Revolutionary War veteran and politician became the fourth chief justice of the United States. He would hold the post for 34 years (still a record), expounding the Constitution he loved. Before he joined the Supreme Court, it was the weakling of the federal government, lacking in dignity and clout. After he died, it could never be ignored again. Through three decades of dramatic cases involving businessmen, scoundrels, Native Americans, and slaves, Marshall defended the federal government against unruly states, established the Supreme Court's right to rebuke Congress or the president, and unleashed the power of American commerce. For better and for worse, he made the Supreme Court a pillar of American life.\n\nIn John Marshall, award-winning biographer Richard Brookhiser vividly chronicles America's greatest judge and the world he made.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0465096220\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0465096220.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Brookhiser, Richard\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
