A Political Biography of Robert Walker Kenny
This biography details the political career of Robert Kenny, a nationally known and admired California judge and Democratic state senator during the New Deal era, and a lawyer who subsequently risked his career to defend "reds" and "radicals" who were denied their constitutional rights in the 1940s and 1950s. His story also reveals the interesting history of the left-center coalition that came to power in the United States in the early years of Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidency.
