’Kastenberg and Merriam have produced a most impressive study that focuses not only on the Federal Judiciary and national defense, but on the evolving relationship between the Supreme Court Justices and the executive/military establishments. Their work draws on many major manuscript collections, and the result is a fascinating account of the justices' ongoing extra-judicial activities, of whom the worst offender was probably Felix Frankfurter. A must read for students of American legal history and political science.’ Jonathan Lurie, Rutgers University, USA
