Reviews
An entertaining book... Collects jokes, musings, and anecdotes from more than 30 Tennessee lawyers whose collective careers span more than 50 years right up to the present day. - (Baton Rouge, LA) Advocate Magazine. This lively book of true stories, some humorous and some horrifying, will capture your attention from beginning to end. - Calvin Dickinson, author of Rural Life and Culture in the Upper Cumberland. Far more than a collection of lawyer jokes, Tales from Tennessee Lawyers recounts the most insightful, entertaining and occasionally, heartbreaking stories. - Cleveland (TN) Daily Banner. Acquaints us with interesting professionals in the law, most of them good story-tellers, and what they think about their profession and its ability to bring wrong-doers to justice. - Loyal Jones, author of Faith and Meaning in the Southern Uplands. Tales from Tennessee Lawyers is not only an excellent example of what can be learned from interviewing lawyers about their profession; these first-hand accounts also indicate how lawyers view other lawyers and judges and the people they serve. - Ronald L. Baker, Editor of Folklore Historian
