A nice copy of a difficult first edition, a novel about the quest for a Harvard Law degree. The basis for the movie and later the television series of the same name. At the age of 71 veteran producer and director John Houseman became a “star” with his Oscar-winning portrayal of the imposing Professor Kingsfield, a role he reprised for television.
