The Department of Justice of the United States

"The Department of Justice of the United States" is a comprehensive and scholarly examination of the administrative framework and legal responsibilities of one of the most vital institutions in the American government. Written by Albert Langeluttig, this work provides a detailed analysis of the department's evolution, focusing on its structure, the powers of the Attorney General, and the intricate bureaucracy that defines federal law enforcement and legal representation.

The book delves into the historical development of the department, mapping its growth from a small advisory office into a sprawling executive entity responsible for the prosecution of federal crimes, the management of the federal prison system, and the oversight of national legal affairs. By exploring the specific duties of various bureaus and the relationship between the Department of Justice and the federal courts, Langeluttig offers invaluable insights into the mechanics of governance and the application of law in early 20th-century America.

This study remains a significant resource for students of political science, legal historians, and anyone interested in the foundational structures of the United States government. It emphasizes the department's role in maintaining the rule of law and provides a clear window into the legal and administrative challenges faced by federal authorities during a period of significant national expansion and reorganization.
