8--- Courting Justice From NY Yankees v. Major League Baseball to Bush v. Gore 1997-2000, by David Boies (read 6 Aug 2023) An entrancing account by a lawyer who not overly modestly tells of the cases he has been concerned with, usually very successfully. ( )

Courting Justice: From NY Yankees v. Major League Baseball to Bush v. Gore 1997-2000, by David Boies (read 11 Nov 2004) A common encomium on a good book is 'I did not want it to end.' This is seldom true, since I like to finish a book so I can go to a new one, but this book is indeed one I did not want to end. I was entranced and awed by this most excellent book, which tells of the big cases Boies has handled in just the four years from 1997 to 2000. He is a master lawyer and while he of course portrays himself in a most favorable light, the results he has obtained show he is a great lawyer. This whole book is an unmitigated success, and I enjoyed every page. The big league law he practices is pretty foreign to me and I was awed by how he could do these big cases and still go on vacations of weeks at a time. This book was an unmitigatedly good experience, and I am so grateful to my good friend from law school days for calling it to my attention. ( )
