Kermit Roosevelt IIIJoin us for a discussion with Kermit Roosevelt III, author of the legal thriller Allegiance (Regan Arts, 2015), a historical novel published about the internment of Japanese citizens during World War II. This legal thriller includes analysis of the classic case Korematsu vs. the United States, in which the Supreme Court upheld Franklin Roosevelt’s executive order for internment, and explores the tensions between liberty and security, and between the courts and the powers of the presidency in wartime. Roosevelt’s novel will lead us to discuss those same themes in the context of today’s war on terror.

Kermit Roosevelt III is a professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania, where he teaches constitutional law.  He is great grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt and distant cousin of FDR.  Allegiance is his second novel, following the publication of In the Shadow of Law. He is also author of The Myth of Judicial Activism

Books will be on sale following the event.
