Our esteemed colleague’s new acclaimed history of the first SCOTUS boss, John Marshall: The Man Who Made the Supreme Court, will be the subject of a dinner and discussion — of course featuring Rick, who will take on the question “What would John Marshall think of the Kavanaugh Confirmation?” — on Thursday, November 29, at J.R.’s Stockyards Inn (8130 Watson Street) in McLean, Va. The event is jointly sponsored by National Review Institute and Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy.
Cocktails start at 6:30 p.m., Dinner and the program commence at 7:00 p.m., and there is night-capping sale and signing of the book that was described by Jonathan Leaf in the last issue of National Review as a “superb account of the life of America’s greatest jurist.” The dinner and participation cost is $55, although admission is complimentary for member of NRI’s 1955 Society.
