New Novel by Kermit Roosevelt

Kermit Roosevelt, Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, ALI member, and Reporter on the Restatement of the Law Third, Conflict of Laws project has published a novel. The book, “Allegiance,” is available from Simon & Schuster. Set during World War II, it’s a legal thriller involving a U.S. Supreme Court clerk and the debate around the internment of thousands of Japanese-Americans in prison camps. One reviewer notes that the book is “an ingenious blend of history and imagination.” In addition to various scholarly works, Professor Roosevelt published another novel in 2005, In the Shadow of the Law.
