Mark Twain vs. lawyers, lawmakers, and lawbreakers

This anthology of humorous sketches and quotations by America's leading humorist, Mark Twain, covers two broad categories: law & lawyers and government & politics. The first to combine these subjects, this collection brings attention to some less-known observations and quotations, many of which come from Twain's abundant letters. Carefully researched and footnoted, the book includes only Twain quotations that can be verified. Footnotes are in legal format, so that they can readily be inserted into legal pleadings.--Publisher.
