A concise, fairly thorough, and well-written biography. - ARBA The thorough coverage begins with a look at each individual's formative years-such as Elena Kagan's Jewish immigrant family-and shows how these events shaped personal and career paths... The book also devotes considerable attention to Kagan's legal arguments and even explains how she did not always agree with her esteemed boss. Black-and-white photos, time lines, and extensive bibliographies round out [this] solid bio. - Booklist [T]he bibliography, table of contents, timeline, and index do make it useful for a student or teacher. - Association of Jewish Libraries This biography is a well-written, heavily researched look into the path that Elena Kagan took throughout her life to get to the position of Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States... This creates a full, rich context for young readers... Recommended. - Jewish Book Council
