RUMPOLE'S AMERICAN NEPHEW
I just loved this book! As a practicing criminal defense attorney who also served 6 years on the bench let me just report that the stories in this book are more true than not. If you are looking for a great read and a bellyfull of laughs pick up this wonderful tome. My wife kicked me out of bed because I was laughing so loud (snorting and chortling as well) that she opined she couldn"t read her own book with me making all that noise.
Sam's Scoop
This book has been the best book I've ever read, by far! The devious and conniving things one defense attorney will do to win will keep you entertained. In John Wilkes's quest for success, anyone or anything that gets in his way will NOT stop him. I would recommend this book to anyone with a decent sense of humor!
what a hoot
have just read this book - a wonderful and funny book. As a former New Yorker, I recognized many characters and this helped to bring it to life. I suggest this is the nearest book to, A CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES, that I've read. Again 5 stars and thanks.

The second finest book ever written about the law.
Both this book and Mr. Sevilla's first work, "Wilkes: His Life and Crimes," are two of the best books I've ever read about lawyers and judges. They're very funny and -- I regret to say -- very truthful accounts of the way our legal system actually works. Get it. Read it. Enjoy it
