　　Presenting a sophisticated narrative history

of the Supreme Court, Ir*** (The Courage of Their Convicti***,

etc.) illustrates the beguiling legacy left by the C***titution's

framers, who conjured up the high Court without providing an

instruction manual. Ir*** is clear about where his ideological

sympathy lies, calling Justice William Brennan "my judicial ideal

and inspiration" and quoting Brennan's famous formulation that "the

genius of the C***titution" rests in "the adaptability of its great

principles to cope with current problems and current needs." Ir***

traces the development of the Court's peculiar institutional

workings from its first proceedings under Chief Justice John Jay to

the struggle for individual liberties during the successive Warren,

Burger and Rehnquist Courts. In characterizing the Court as a

bastion of racism, classism and ***ism prior to Earl Warren's

ascendancy, he often tends to use extended arguments when quick

jabs would suffice. But as he delves into the personalities of

litigants, justices and senators (who, as far back as 1831, fought

fiercely over the confirmati*** of Supreme Court nominees), Ir***

proves himself a master of American legal and political history. He

is particularly lucid when recounting how Rec***truction reforms,

such as the Fourteenth Amendment, that were intended to ensure the

liberties of individuals were co-opted by the Gilded Age Court to

protect the liberties of business. Ir*** combines careful research

with a populist passion. In doing so, he breathes abundant life

into old documents and reminds readers that today's fiercest

arguments about rights are the continuation of the endless American

conversation
