Truly, the excerpts contained in this trilogy capture the transformation of the Supreme Court from a passive, laid back, generally cautious and conservative evaluator of past dramas to a proactive, interacting and courageous mover and molders of current and future events. In both roles, it explains itself in elegant and spirited prose, which would pass for literature of the era.
