O knihe

Nat Hentoff is one of America's foremost and most passionate writers about civil liberties and civil rights. In Living the Bill of Rights, he has taken what is too often thought of as an abstract issue and enlivened it by focusing on representative individuals for whom the Constitution is a vital part of life. As the late Supreme Court Justice William Brennan told Hentoff, Americans need to know how "American liberties were won -- and what it takes to keep them alive".

With characteristic eloquence, Hentoff covers the full range of American life in these inspiring profiles and stories about public and private heroes -- Supreme Court Justices William Brennan and William O. Douglas, Dr. Kenneth O. Clark, and students, teachers, lawyers, and others who challenge assaults on the Bill of Rights -- people, as Justice Brennan says, "who are not afraid to fight to keep on being free Americans".
