147157New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1987. Early printing of this analysis of the United States' relationship with its constitution. Octavo original half cloth frontispiece of 'Washington Giving the Laws to America' by J. P. Elven illustrated. Association copy inscribed on the front free endpaper "March 1987 To Judge Ginsburg From the "boys in the back room" - Jay Mark & David." The inscription appears to have been written by men who clerked for Justice Ginsburg during the 1986-1987 term when she was a Federal Judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. From the library of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Arguably the most famous Supreme Court Justice in American history lawyer and jurist Ruth Bader Ginsburg served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1993 until her death in 2020. Popularly dubbed “the Notorious R.B.G.†a play on the name of famed 90s rapper The Notorious B.I.G. Ginsburg was responsible for some of the most eventful legal decisions of the past half-century. When she was nominated by President Bill Clinton in 1993 to replace retiring justice Byron White Ginsburg became both the first Jewish woman and the second woman to serve on the Court after Sandra Day O’Connor. Ginsburg was born and grew up in Brooklyn New York earned degrees at Cornell University and Columbia Law School and began her career as a professor at Rutgers Law School and Columbia Law School teaching civil procedure as one of the few women in her field. She spent much of her early legal career as an advocate for gender equality and women’s rights winning many arguments before the Supreme Court and in 1972 co-founded the Women’s Rights Project at the American Civil Liberties Union which participated in more than 300 gender discrimination cases by 1974. In 1980 President Jimmy Carter appointed her to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit where she served until her appointment to the Supreme Court in 1993. During her tenure as associate justice of the Supreme Court Ginsburg received increasing attention for her fiery and passionate dissents that reflected liberal views of the law. She authored several important majority opinions related to gender discrimination voting rights and affirmative action in cases such as United States v. Virginia 1996 which struck down the Virginia Military Institute’s male-only admissions policy as violating the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment Olmstead v. L.C. 1999 in which the Court ruled that mental illness is a form of disability covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and Friends of the Earth Inc. v. Laidlaw Environmental Services Inc. 2000 in which the Court held that residents have standing to seek fines for an industrial polluter that affected their interests and that is able to continue doing so. In 2002 Ginsburg was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame she was named one of Forbes’ 100 Most Powerful Women in 2009 and one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in 2015. Her powerful and fiery dissent in the 2013 Supreme Court case Shelby County v. Holder in which she argued against the majority’s decision to strike down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 emphasizing the continued need for its protections against racial discrimination in voting earned her the nickname “The Notorious R.B.G.†– a moniker she came to embrace which has since become a celebration of her important legal career and legacy. Widely regarded as one of the most remarkable women in American history Ginsburg redefined and transcended the traditional role of Supreme Court justice ascending to the status of intergenerational feminist pop culture icon.

Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box by the Harcourt Bindery. "Kammen has a remarkable knack of presenting important historical ideas in an absorbing fashion. It is no easy achievement to write a study of the Constitution that is fresh lively and highly significant. He has succeeded on all accounts turning out a page-turner which is the authoritative evaluation of the Constitution in our culture" Frank Freidel University of Washington. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover

Attractive woodcut bookplate of the George Borrow scholar and bibliographer Ann Ridler country scene with cats to inside front board. Ann Ridler wrote various pieces on Pitter including her biography for the ODNB.

With two loose enclosures both with poems by Ruth Pitter: a 1989 Christmas card from Enitharmon Press poem by Pitter inside and a small 6.8 x 7.4cm chapbook in an envelope with handwritten bibliographic information.

Joan Hassall J. F. Joy Foster and R. B. H. Raymond Barnett with imprint 'Printed at 88 Kensington Park Road London W.11' Hassall's house where she had her own 1832 Albion hand press. Envelope dates chapbook to 1948 and has 'cut on metal & hand printed by J. H. in her private press'. This chapbook was printed in a limited edition of 300 copies. Joan Hassall 1906-1988 was one of the major wood engravers and illustrators of twentieth-century Britain awarded an OBE in 1987. Much like Pitter she established herself on the national stage in the 1930s and went on to produce 'the most delicate wood-engravings produced since the days of Thomas Bewick' McLean 1960 p. 9 for a wide range of works including Ruth Pitter's 1950 Urania. Ruth Pitter 1897-1992 poet and craftswoman. First discovered by Hilaire Belloc who financed her earliest publications was 'among the most important influences in her life' ODNB and provides a preface to A Mad Lady's Garland she 'first attracted public attention' with this volume first published in 1934: 'a brilliantly crafted work reflecting her early exercises . in the art of pastiche' ODNB. Inspired by the writing of her friend C.S. Lewis Pitter was to join the Anglican church during the Second World War and her later writing 'celebrated a belief in an all-pervading divinity in creation' ODNB. Pitter supported herself by running a business making decorative furniture with the artist Kathleen O'Hara with whom she lived until the latter's death in 1973. In 1955 she became the first woman to receive the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry; in 1979 she was appointed CBE. In her obituary of Pitter Ann Margaret Ridler writes that 'her whole life was devoted to her craft her writing grounded in the natural world in common things and people portrayed with love and a painterly clarity - sometimes too with a grotesque even rough humour yet penetrating far deeper' Ridler 'Capturing the Dance in Stillness' The Guardian 3 Mar. 1992. This is a signed first edition second impression of Pitter's first significant work provenance including Ann Ridler who certainly met Pitter and wrote sensitively on her life and work with charming limited edition chapbook by Pitter and Joan Hassall. ~Robust packaging.

The British poet and craftswoman "first attracted public attention with A Mad Lady's Garland 1934 a brilliantly crafted work reflecting her early exercises encouraged by A. R. Orage in the art of pastiche"; another contemporary John Stewart Collis recalled "her remarkable range and the subtlety of her oblique lyrical assault" ODNB. The collection features poems voicing a coffin-worm "The Worm unto his love" earwig 'the virtuous female spider' a performing flea and church mouse amongst others who "speak so classically with so exquisite an artifice that I am stayed to listen to them" 'AE' George William Russell rear panel blurb.
