Reseña del libro "Tales and Torts: Stories of a Country Lawyer (en Inglés)"

"The newspaper headline declared in large bold letters: "Shoot Out At High Noon." Reading the first paragraph of the article disclosed the truth of the old saying, "don't take a knife to a gun fight." The man with the knife lay dead on the ground, while the fellow with the rifle fled the scene in his blue Ford F-150 full-size pickup truck" (from "The Love Triangle"). Tales and Torts: Stories of a Country Lawyer is a unique collection of short stories proving the axiom, "sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction." Each story recounted is based on a real legal case and each illuminates the human condition. Love, prized animals, tragedy, murder, swindlers and thieves, disgruntled family members, and hardened criminals. These tales involve a wide variety of cases in many areas of the law with astonishing fact patterns and extraordinary individuals chosen out of thousands of cases over a forty-year legal career. From the Jewish Russian tenor escaping religious persecution in Russia, to the Tongan travelling to experience the miracle of snow in Canada, to Li jing, whose life was tragically altered on Chinese New Year's Eve, each character is brought to life with humour, compassion, and an eye to achieving one goal: justice.
