Death On The Doorstep And Other Stories: A Trial Lawyer'S Memoir

A darkly funny, insightful, compelling, and well-written book about what it's really like to practice as a criminal defense attorney on the front lines of American justice. From the profound (a man accused of murder for shooting a masked gunman who attacks him and his wife on their doorstep) to the ridiculous (a major Federal investigation into fishermen shooting cormorants), Ed Menkin's memoir is told with humor, wisdom, and insight. It will have you questioning everything you ever thought you knew about how our criminal justice system really works. It brings to vivid life lawyers, judges, and crooks, revealing their character, their demeanor, their authentic speech, and their seriocomic lives.
