The Chief Justiceship of Charles Evans Hughes, 1930-1941 (Chief Justiceship of the United States Supreme Court)
"Charles Evans Hughes served as Chief Justice of the United  States Supreme Court during one of the most critical periods in the history  of the Court and the nation. In this carefully researched book, William G.  Ross adds depth and complexity to our understanding of both Hughes and the  Court that he led. Ross also provides fresh insight into the question of  the extent and nature of the constitutional change of the 1930s that  resulted in what Ross appropriately describes as 'the first modern  Court.'"--Davison M.
