In his autobiography, Peeling the Onion, which provoked a storm of controversy when it was published in 2006, Grass for the first time acknowledges that as a boy of seventeen he was a proud member of the infamous Waffen-SS.

McLean's importance comes from three aspects of his career: 1. his unusual political aspirations and activities while serving on the bench; 2. his support for a national commerce power and a flexible approach to economic development that contrasted with the states' rights anti-nationalism of Roger Taney and a majority of the antebellum Court; and 3. his moderate antislavery jurisprudence, which he combined with a defense of northern interests on ...
