This classic history of the Supreme Court discusses the selection, nomination, and appointment of each of the Justices who have sat on the U.S. Supreme Court since 1789. Abraham provides a fascinating account of the presidential motivations behind each nomination, examining how each appointee's performance on the bench fulfilled, or disappointed, presidential expectations. It is now in its fifth edition, with an expanded title. During the span of his career, Abraham has taught many notable students, including U.S. Senator Arlen Specter (D. -Penn. ) and Professor Larry J. Sabato. Henry Julian Abraham (born August 25, 1921) is an American scholar on the judiciary and constitutional law. He is James Hart Professor of Government Emeritus at the University of Virginia. [1] He is the author of 13 books, most in multiple editions, and more than 100 articles on the U.S. Supreme Court, judicial appointments, judicial process, and civil rights and liberties. In 1937, Abraham immigrated alone to the United States from Germany during the rise of the Nazi regime. He served in World War II as an enlisted man and officer in U.S. Army Intelligence on duty in Western and Central Europe. He received two Battle Stars and the Commendation Medal. When the war ended in the European Theater, Abraham, who is fluent in German, French, and English, and adequate in Danish, served in a military unit that gathered evidence for use in the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials. After serving in the University of Pennsylvania's Department of Political Science for 23 years (1943-1972), Abraham became a chaired professor in the Department of Government and Foreign Affairs at the University of Virginia in 1972. He lectured throughout the world under U.S.I.A. auspices. He retired from full-time teaching in 1997 after nearly a half-century in the classroom, but he continues to teach in lifelong learning programs in Charlottesville, Virginia.
