Division and Discord offers a comprehensive appraisal of the Supreme Court during the fractious period that bridged the courtpacking fight of the Hughes years and the rights explosion of the Warren era. During these years the Court ruled on a range of controversial cases, including the internment of the Japanese, the guilt of the Rosenbergs, and the crimes of Nazi saboteurs. These years signaled a fundamental upheaval in U.S. jurisprudence -- the shift in focus from the protection of private property to the protection of individual liberties.
