{"product_id":"john-marshall-robert-strauss-9781493037476","title":"John Marshall: The Final Founder","description":"Eighteenth- and 19th-century contemporaries believed Marshall to be, if not the equal of George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, at least very close to that pantheon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eJohn Marshall: The Final Founder\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates that not only can Marshall be considered one of those Founding Fathers, but that what he did as the Chief Justice was not just significant, but the glue that held the union together after the original founding days. The Supreme Court met in the basement of the new Capitol building in Washington when Marshall took over, which is just about what the executive and legislative branches thought of the judiciary. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eJohn Marshall: The Final Founder\u003c\/i\u003e advocates a change in the view of when the \"founding\" of the United States ended. That has long been thought of in one or the other of the signing of the Constitution, the acceptance of the Bill of Rights or the beginning of the Washington presidency. \u003ci\u003eThe Final Founder\u003c\/i\u003e pushes that forward to the peaceful change of power from Federalist to Democrat-Republican and, especially, Marshall's singular achievement -- to move the Court from the basement and truly make it Supreme.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Strauss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1493037471\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781493037476\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lyons Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2020","brand":"Robert Strauss","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44043975393535,"sku":"9781493037476","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0c72bee3-be22-4753-b101-8f46df0c3622.jpg?v=1684970194","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-marshall-robert-strauss-9781493037476","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
