Annotation |
The story of the Court is told chronologically from the first session in 1790, and is organized by the terms of the chief justices. Interspersed are chapters on the landmark cases: Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), Lochner v. New York (1905), Brown v. Board of Education (1954), and Roe v. Wade (1973). Throughout the book, Schwartz asserts that the Court has balanced judicial activism against judicial restraint.
