Transcripts of his closing arguments, all of which were delivered without notes. Passionate as hell. They say he never opened a law book; he argued and won by appealing to morality alone. The man was a philosopher and a student (professor?) of the human condition. An extremely important and worthwhile book.

Editorial Reviews

"Clarence Darrow [was] perhaps the most effective courtroom opponent of cant, bigotry, and special privilege that our country has produced. All of Darrow's most celebrated pleas are here—in defense of Leopold and Loeb (1924), of Lieutenant Massie (1932), of Big Bill Haywood (1907), of Thomas Scopes (1925), and of himself for attempted bribery.
