scapegoats for many of the problems of our age. In "The Lawyer Myth: A Defense of the American Legal Profession," Rennard Strickland and Frank T.

At times, the Society was caught up in problems of its own making, such as refusing to admit women until the late 1940s. But there were also moments of excitement and...
