Synopsis
In THE BRETHREN, investigative journalists Bob Woodward and Scott Armstrong look behind the robes of the United States Supreme Court, traditionally the most secretive of the three branches of government. Through references to key cases and decisions, as well as deep research, interviews, and a dose of tabloid-style gossip, Woodward and Armstrong track how the court works, and in doing so reveal that the august body is comprised of individuals with great intellect and experience, yet whose deliberations are marked sometimes by personal rivalries, factions, and compromise. Focusing on six terms of the Burger Court, which followed the historic Warren Court, they show that politics sometimes factors into the decisions, while also showing that the Constitution, however it is argued and debated, remains the fixed point of reference always. Published in 1979, THE BRETHREN was a groundbreaking, behind-the-scenes account that fascinated the reading public.

Publisher's Note
Offers an unprecedented view of the chief and associate justices of the Burger Supreme Court, illuminating the maneuvering, arguing, politicking, and compromising that underlie the making of decisions that affect every major area of American life.
