Here’s a new book which, I confess, I won’t be reading; law discussions are like philosophy to me – they go right over my head, usually after causing my eyes to glaze over! But for you legal eagles/aficionados, there’s Lincoln’s Last Trial, which looks at a murder trial Lincoln worked before his Presidential run.
In order to write Lincoln’s Last Trial, Dan Abrams, the chief legal affairs anchor for ABC News and CEO and founder of Abrams media, along with his writing partner, David Fisher, used Hitt’s transcripts to provide them with the accurate details of the last trial in which Lincoln ever participated as an attorney.
