Hear ye, hear ye! Get ready to learn all about the most powerful
court in the United States.
Ever since it was established in 1789, the United States Supreme Court
has had a major impact on the lives of all Americans. Some of its
landmark decisions have helped end segregation, protected a person's
privacy, and allowed people to marry whomever they love.

and self-confessed political junkie, Jill Abramson has written a
detailed and fascinating book that explains how the highest court in the
United States works, who gets to serve on it, which cases have had the
greatest impact on the country, and why the US justice system is so
vital to democracy.
With 80 black-and-white illustrations and an engaging 16-page photo
insert, readers will be excited to read this addition to this New York
Times Best-Selling series.
