The great justices, 1941-54

"The Great Justices offers a revealing glimpse of a judicial universe in which titanic egos often clash, and comes as close as any book ever has to getting inside the minds of Supreme Court jurists." "Comparing four brilliant but very different jurists of the Roosevelt-era Court - Hugo Black, William O. Douglas, Felix Frankfurter, and Robert Jackson - William Domnarski paints a startling picture of the often deeply ambiguous relationship between ideas and reality, between the law and the justices who interpret and create it. By pulling aside the veil of decorous tradition, Domnarski brings to light the personalities that shaped one of the greatest Courts of our time - one whose decisions continue to affect judicial thinking today."--BOOK JACKET.
