The Biggest Damned Hat Tales from Alaska's Territorial Lawyers and Judges

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】

Alaska history from the days before statehood is rich in stories of colorful charactersーprospectors, settlers, heroes, and criminals. And right alongside them were judges and lawyers, working first to establish the rule of law in the territory, then, later, laying the groundwork for statehood. The Biggest Damned Hat presents a fascinating collection of stories ranging from the gold rush to the 1950s. Built on interviews and oral histories from more than fifty lawyers who worked in Alaska before 1959, and buttressed by research into legal history, the book offers a brilliantly multifaceted portrait of law in the territoryーfrom laying the groundwork for strong civil and criminal law to helping to secure mining and fishing rights to the Alaska Court-Bar fight, which pitted Alaska’s community of lawyers against its nascent Supreme Court. Bringing to life a time long pastーwhen some of the best lawyers had little formal legal educationーThe Biggest Damned Hat fills in a crucial part of the story of Alaska’s history.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
