Customer Review: The author has a way of keeping the reader informed and not overwhelmed. With so many names and locations, a huge amount of confusion is likely but doesn't happen.
I feel well informed about a troubling case. I highly recommend you read this book.
Customer Review: I really loved Helter Skelter, Vincent Bugliosi is a super intelligent and talented former DA. I was slightly dissapointed in this book because it was a little too verbose for my taste. A lot of legal chargin. But its great if your an attorney and you want to learn how to be a good trial lawyer,... more info
Customer Review: I am a college student studying to be a medical assistant. I had to write an essay on a specific medical lawsuit for my class "Medical Law and Ethics." I have not read a nonfiction book in years, but once I started reading this book I could not put it down. It is so stimulating, exciting, and... more info
Customer Review: I've read most of Mr Dunne's books and he continues to hold my interest. I have the utmost of respect for this gentleman...his unbiased yet "in your face" take on the upper crust's trials and tribulations are bar none...right on the money, so to speak.
I hope Mr Dunne keeps on doing what he... more info

A combination of a fascinating biography of criminologist Lonnie Athens, an excellent... more info
Customer Review: This book relies entirely too much on clips from previously published sources. In addition, the authors did not interview many tribal members or people who aided this tribe get on the map. It feels like a book the author was simply rushing to finish. Too bad.
Customer Review: I love Janet Malcolm's writing. But I found this book frustrating and tedious, although it's barely 160 pages. There's nothing straightforward about her presentation of McGough's story, and Malcolm simply doesn't understand an attorney's ethical obligations. She doesn't present McGough's crime of... more info
Customer Review: Edward Lazarus's Closed Chambers is a master work; and joins Bernard Schwartz's Super Chief as the two best books I've read to date about the Supreme Court. I strongly disagree with the opinion that Lazarus's book does not deliver what it promises. The Supreme Court is an institution chock-full... more info
