‘Creating Legal Worlds provides valuable insights into the role narrative takes in judgement writing… this book provides a reminder that the best story does not always match the law.’ - Allison Graham (Saskatchewan Law Review vol 79:2016) ‘Creating Legal Worlds provides valuable insight into the role narrative takes in judgement writing… Litigators will receive insight as to how to frame their arguments but this book provides a reminder that the best story does not always match the law.’ - Allison Graham (Saskatchewan Law Review vol 79:2016) ‘I recommend Henderson’s book to legal historians as a salutary perspective-shift in which they will find much that is new and much that is ""familiar, yet somehow strange"" – and worth thinking about.’ - Angela Fernandez (Jotwell: The Journal of Things we Like (LOTS) March2016) ‘This intriguing book provides an important understanding of legal writing—whether on the part of lawyers, judges, or police officers who are writing reports—and how to conceptualize and analyze it.’ - G.C. David (Choice Magazine vol 53:07:2016)
