the Freedom of Information Act. They consist of 2,206 pages. In addition, the FBI released Warren material to author Alexander Charns during the preparation of his 1992 book Cloak and Gavel . In most cases, the material given to me and to Charns is identical, or what I have received is slightly more expansive, since it was released more than a decade later. Where I have drawn on the material released to me, I have cited it merely by official document number. In the few instances where, inexplicably, the FBI released material to Charns but did not include those same files in complying with my request or where it redacted those files more heavily, I have cited the document numbers as well as Charns’s papers, which are housed at the University of North Carolina.
    In addition, previous studies of Warren have been made without access to two vitally important sets of records, held out of public view for different reasons. Congressional files related to Supreme Court nominations are sealed for fifty years, and thus the story of Warren’s nomination was locked away until 2004. Those files, opened at my request, are housed at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.
    Also, large portions of the papers of William J. Brennan, Jr., Warren’s great friend and colleague, have been restricted over the years by Brennan’s deed of trust donating those papers to the Library of Congress. The terms of that deed restrict access to the papers, but Brennan’s son, William J. Brennan III, intervened on my behalf to release his father’s records for the Warren years. This book thus is the first of its type to rest on the revelations in those papers, particularly the annual memos composed by the Brennan clerks and summing up each term. I am grateful to Bill Brennan for his efforts on my behalf and sad to report that he did not live to see this book published.
