Sobre este artículo
St. Paul, MN: West Publishing Co, 1973. Hardcover. Small 4to. Green leatherette with gilt lettering and rules. x, 304pp. Very good. Binding faintly edgeworn only; circular blind-embossed ownership imprint on rear flyleaf; a dozen or less pages with inked underlining and margin squiggles. A tight and nice first edition of this memoir and essays by a notable long-time UCLA law professor (1915-99) whose influential 1963 work "Language of the Law" began a lifelong crusade to remove gobbledygook from legalese and simplify and improve legal grammar. Rather scarce, and this copy features a fine decorative-edged bookplate on front flyleaf signed boldly in black ballpoint by legal eagle F. Lee Bailey (1933-2021), criminal defense attorney famed for representing Sam Sheppard, Albert DeSalvo, Patty Hearst, O.J. Simpson and other celebrity clients.
