Reflections of a Supreme Court Justice

The Majesty of the Law

Carol Bailey

I picked up this book when it first came out because of an interview that I saw with Sandra Day O'Connor. As a result, I was of the wrong impression that this book would be more about her specific experiences as a Supreme Court Justice and more specfically about being the 1st woman Justice. That being said:

This book was very well written and for the 1st time in my life I found "history" interesting. I especially enjoyed the later sections that dealt with the woman's movement and how that affected the court.
