Shapiro 1932–2023 was a distinguished Harvard Law School professor and a leading authority on federal courts and civil procedure widely regarded as an influential figure in modern federal courts jurisprudence. Over a career spanning several decades at Harvard Shapiro shaped scholarly and judicial understanding of jurisdiction judicial review and the institutional role of federal courts within the constitutional system. Ruth Bader Ginsburg remembered him in his Harvard Law Review In Memoriam issue "Among members of the legal academy David L. Shapiro impressed me as the very best the most devoted to his teaching and writing the least self-regarding. He was ever mindful of the importance of facts and of the law's impact on the people law exists or should exist to serve. And I will miss our correspondence about the Court's jurisprudence his applause for some of our decisions his worries about others. But I count it my good fortune to have known David L. Shapiro a man as kind and caring as he was brilliant." Indiana Law Journal unknown

1960réf. 10611New York: Harper & Brothers 1960. First printing. Fine in near fine jacket. First edition of Krauss's follow-up to A HOLE IS TO DIG in which she collects her observations of children's innovative approach to word invention and turns them into a book of poetry. Krauss enjoyed enormous acclaim as a writer on her own terms for her children's books that are now better known today as early "Sendak titles." Biographer Philip Nel argues that because she "treated them as equals children accepted Krauss as one of them confiding in her telling her stories or just playing while she watched. She listened wrote down what they said and used her poet's ear to select phrases that displayed a natural unrehearsed lyricism." Krauss along with her husband Crockett Johnson was a formative mentor for Sendak. While their relationship was often strained Sendak felt that "part of her fury was educating me the dumb Brooklyn kid into a more interesting human being. She was determined that I have more insight that I think higher" quoted in Nel 178-9. An exceptionally beautiful copy. 6.5'' x 5''. Original quarter black cloth yellow paper boards. In original unclipped $1.50 yellow pictorial dust jacket. Pictorial endpapers. Illustrated by Sendak throughout in black and white; text in brown. 48 pages. Tiny bit of wear to jacket spine ends else clean and fresh. Harper & Brothers unknown
