A Supreme Court Justice Is Appointed

A generally interesting book (bit of a trudge at times) by David Danelski discussing the machinations behind the appointment of Pierce Butler (a few others are touched upon as background). Written in the 1960s, a reminder that such things didn't just arise a few years ago. Are Roberts/Alito involved in judicial nominations to the degree of Taft/Van Devanter?!
