The first biography in decades of one of the most extraordinary and singular figures in American jurisprudence: a small-time lawyer--with one year of law school--who joined FDR's administration and became, in rapid succession, U.S. Solicitor General, Attorney General, and Supreme Court Justice. Robert H. Jackson's most enduring legacy, however, may have been his work as chief U.S. prosecutor at the Nuremberg war crimes trial. Distinguished historian G. Edward White offers a compelling portrait of a complex figure who continues to inspire reverence.
