Inherently Unequal: The Betrayal of Equal Rights by the Supreme Court, 1865-1903
This book covers a lot of ground pretty well but its brevity does result in some thinness and certain assumptions (e.g., about due process) that are not adequately explained. Amazon reviews also point to some errors. Overall, worthwhile but to be taken with a grain of salt.
