"Written over 80 years ago, but highly relevant today, The Bramble Bush is one of the books most frequently and strongly recommended for students to read when considering law school, just before beginning its study, or in the first semester. It began as a collection from a series of introductory lectures given by legal legend Karl Llewellyn to new law students at Columbia University. It still speaks to law, legal reasoning, class prep, and exam skills in a way that makes it a classic for each new generation.
