4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent -- but confined to material from law reviews.,
By D. Wayne Cooper (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Amicus Humoriae: An Anthology of Legal Humor (Hardcover)
This is great stuff, and the editors have done a fine job of locating it all.
I'd mention that it consists exclusively of material from law reviews -- which makes the editors' research all the more impressive, but it also means there's a lot more out there.
