The Passionate Liberal: The Political and Legal Ideas of Jerome Frank. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1970. xi, 233 pp. Softbound, negligible light soiling to exterior, internally clean. $45. * Only edition. Jerome Frank was one of the most important spokesmen for the generation of liberal intellectuals who came to maturity during the period of Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal. He was never a major figure in public life and thus never became a symbol of the period as did President Roosevelt, Henry Wallace, Harry Hopkins, or others whose positions made their views accessible to the entire reading and listening public. While these men represented the popular view of the New Deal with its dedication to the elimination of the economic misery which beset the nation during the nineteen thirties, Frank may be the New Deal figure who most accurately summarized the intellectual currents of the period.
