When my father, Rodolfo Loredan Gannon died, there was no obituary. There were no tributes, no headlines, only quiet calls to the few who understood the weight of his absence. For over fifty years, he worked beyond the public eye, trusted by those whose choices shaped careers, countries, and the course of events most people never knew were being decided.

Wade, is so influential that many now refer to the “Alito Court.” But his powerful role, long overlooked, has aroused the ire of activists outraged by the emergence of a cohesive conservative majority on the court. In this first comprehensive study of Alito, Mollie Hemingway explains how his common sense and prosecutorial experience, combined with fearless intellectual rigor, have shaped the man and the jurist.
