‘A Republic, If You Can Keep It’ By Neil Gorsuch Crown Publishing, New York, 352 pages, $30
Woodrow Wilson once quipped: “A conservative is a man who sits and thinks, mostly sits.” As revealed in his new book, however, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch is no such conservative. Reflecting on his path to the high court, Gorsuch’s book contains both an insightful memoir and excerpts from an impressive array of articles, speeches, and judicial opinions that analyze the responsibilities of citizenship, constitutional law, the art of judging, and ethics. As such, the book provides a revealing window into the mind of a jurist who, at 52 years old, is still in a state of becoming.
