Slaying Dragons: The Truth Behind the Man Who Defended Paula Jones (Hardcover)

~ (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

"When I took on the Jones case, I had no idea that this lawsuit would lead to a virtual civil war which pitted core values—truth and integrity, morality, and monogamy—against national interests in privacy and perhaps the very rule of law. I had no idea that Paula Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit would lead ultimately to the impeachment of the President of the United States." Slaying Dragons is the story of John W. Whitehead. An inspiring story of how God claimed this pot-smoking rebel Marxist and turned his life around. It also includes the inside story of the factors that led Whitehead to take on one of the most controversial lawsuits of our time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Totally engrossing, February 5, 2000

By	Dorothy Vining (Danbury CT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

John Whitehead comes through as a real person with a not so promising background who emerges as a "bigger than life" Christian man. He truly makes one believe that with God all things are possible. Not only do we learn the truth about Paula Jones, but he also has met Clinton, Dobson, Jim Bakker, Jerry Falwell, Anita Hill, Pat Robertson, Randall Terry, etc, etc. And, though the book is not about her, I am equally enthralled with his wife, Carol. What a woman! She should write her own book about her life with John and how she perservered. You will be fascinated about John Whitehead's "conversion story."
