"This is a welcome contribution. Kens places the Lochner decision firmly within its historical context and uses it as a window to an age. In the course of his narrative, Kens introduces the reader to an array of subjects including the noisome conditions in New York's tenement bakeries, Progressive reformers and Tammany Hall politics; nineteenth-century intellectual, economic, and labor history; and the lives and personalities of important jurists and lawyers."--Law and History Review "This excellent and well-written analysis of economic and social developments in the early 20th century is recommended for readers interested in American history and law."--Library Journal "Kens's masterful study of this case updates an revises his 1990 book on the same subject. The author places Lochner in its historical context, examining the forces leading to passage of the law in 1895, the politics of New York during this era, and the legal path leading to the Supreme Court decision."--Choice.
