Welcome to Litsy!

Gideon's Trumpet is about the Supreme Court case that guarantees legal counsel to those on trial for felonies, regardless of their ability to pay. I am a former public defender & loved reading the procedural history, summaries of briefs, selections from oral argument. Book is extremely dated and only uses masculine pronouns for attorneys, clerks, etc., despite the presence of women in the profession at the time of publication.

Day 4: #7days7books books that have a left a deep impact and changed me. Thanks @Cathythoughts for the tag.
