A fascinating look at one of the first well-known con man of the pre civil war era. But also a lot of interesting insights into social and cultural sentiment. A book that is very relevant to understanding that our current times while very different in some ways is very similar to this period In American history.

Well written, incredibly well documented opus about Frankfurters life. Have read up to just after Ww2. Many facets of his life and judicial views are very relevant to today’s conversation about the Supreme Court.
