I agree. “The Brethren,” should be represented on the list. As should something by Grisham. I recommend, “A Time To Kill” – Grisham’s first and best novel. Well, at least that is how I remember it in High School.

My easy favorite is The Courage of Their Convictions by Peter Irons, it’s more just the story of a bunch of famous Supreme Court Cases and the litigants.

The Brethren (one of the first “inside looks” at the Supreme Court) I particularly enjoyed.

I realize I would like to read some more in this area!

I ready “A Civil Action” my first year of law school as required reading. I loved it. It really made me dream big and work harder.
