May It Please the Court: The Most Significant Oral Arguments Made Before the Supreme Court Since 1955

May It Please the Court: The Most Significant Oral Arguments Made Before the Supreme Court Since 1955

Stephanie Guitton
4.1/5 ( ratings)
Until The New Press first published May It Please the Court in 1993, few Americans knew that every case argued before the Supreme Court since 1955 had been recorded. The original book-and-tape set was a revelation to readers and reviewers, quickly becoming a bestseller and garnering praise across the nation.


May It Please the Court includes both live recordings and transcripts of oral arguments in twenty-three of the most significant cases argued before the Supreme Court in the second half of the twentiethcentury. This edition makes the recordings available on an MP3 audio CD. Through the voices of some of the nation’s most important lawyers and justices, including Thurgood Marshall, Archibald Cox, and Earl Warren, it offers a chance to hear firsthand our justice system at work, in the highest court of the land.


Cases included: Gideon v. Wainwright Abington School District v. Schempp Miranda v. Arizona Roe v. Wade Edwards v. Aguillard Regents v. Bakke Wisconsin v. Yoder Tinker v. Des Moines Texas v. Johnson New York Times v. United States Cox v. Louisiana Communist Party v. Subversive Activities Control Board Terry v. Ohio Gregg v. Georgia Cooper v. Aaron Heart of Atlanta Motel v. United States Palmer v. Thompson Loving v. Virginia San Antonio v. Rodriguez Bowers v. Hardwick Baker v. Carr United States v. Nixon DeShaney v. Winnebago County
