description: The Black Robe and the Bald Eagle is a fascinating historical analysis of the role that the Supreme Court has played in U.S. foreign policy. It challenges the general belief that the Court has traditionally stayed out of the political fray of foreign policy controversies. Although the Court has taken a neutralist stance in recent years, this was not the case prior to the Korean War. Moreover, Bland argues that the Court should return to its earlier role and increase its participation in foreign policy debates. Bland's insightful and provocative findings will excite those with an interest in political science, legal studies, foreign policy, or American history.
