FDR’s Gambit: The Court Packing Fight and the Rise of Legal Liberalism

by Laura Kalman

A comprehensive, engaging, and revisionist account of the Court fight that ties it to contemporary policy debates. In the last past few years, liberals concerned about the prospect of long-term conservative dominance of the federal courts have revived an idea that famously crashed and burned in the 1930s: court packing.
