tion ( 1938), The President: Office and Powers ( 1940; rev. ed.,
1948), and The Constitution and World Organization ( 1944)
were books that changed the minds of men in the seats of power
in Washington as in the seats of learning about the country.
Nor should his other books be forgotten, certainly not The
Doctrine of Judicial Review ( 1914), The President's Control of
Foreign Relations ( 1917), John Marshall and the Constitution
( 1919), Total War and the Constitution ( 1947), and Liberty
against Government ( 1948). All of these remain useful tools in
the kit of every self-respecting professor of constitutional law.

Professor Corwin is spending his so-called "retirement" in
Princeton, whence he goes forth from time to time to lecture
to a new generation about the Constitution and its problems.
Rather than rest contented with such honors as the presidency
of the American Political Science Association ( 1931), a Litt. D.
from Harvard ( 1936) and an LL.D. from both Michigan ( 1925)
and Princeton ( 1954), and the Franklin medal of the American
Philosophical Society ( 1940), he is toiling as faithfully and pro-
ductively as ever in the lush vineyards of the American
Constitution. The most recent fruits of this toil are The Con-
stitution and What It Means Today ( 1954), the eleventh edi-
tion of a celebrated little book that first appeared in 1920, and
The Constitution of the United States of America: Analysis
and Interpretation ( 1953), an imposing public document of
more than 1350 pages that serves each member of Congress as a
trustworthy guide to the Constitution and to the more than
4000 cases that have made it what it is today.--Clinton Rossiter.
