It's been a while since I read this, but the details that stick in my memory are his description of Rehnquist's poker games and the friendship between Scalia and Ginsburg. Political commentary is almost unavoidable with cases like Bush v. Gore, but the fact that Ginsburg and Scalia are socially very close says a lot about the nature of the court. A good read.
