Another riveting walk through legal cases from Geoffrey Robertson QC, selectively illustrating how to be a barrister is to play the game of justice. Endlessly entertaining and painstakingly erudite (as you’d hope, for someone in his role), he contrasts the cases he’s been called into, illustrates the machinery of justice (for example the Privy Council, and their jurisdiction over death row cases in the colonies), and answers a lot of questions about how lawyers sleep straight in bed. A brilliant writer, lawyer, and human being.
