Swartz T: Stories About Small Town
Judges Tom Swartz

Stories About Small Town Judges Tom Swartz

A compelling historical biography that offers an in-depth look at one of Texas' most influential and controversial figures during the tumultuous mid-19th century. This meticulously researched work by John A. Adams, Jr. provides a vivid portrayal of Oran Milo Roberts' life, from his humble beginnings in Alabama to his rise as a prominent jurist and political leader in Texas. The biography expertly weaves Roberts' personal story with the broader historical context of Texas and the nation, shedding light on the motivations and beliefs that drove Roberts and many of his contemporaries. It provides a nuanced understanding of the complex social, political, and economic forces that shaped the state's development and skillfully examines Roberts' evolving political views, particularly his staunch advocacy for states' rights and his eventual embrace of secession. Adams' engaging narrative style brings historical figures to life, offering readers a front-row seat to the debates and decisions that shaped Texas history. The Old Alcalde is essential reading for scholars of Texas history, Civil War enthusiasts, and anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics that led to the secession of Texas from the Union.

A Nora Carleton Legal Thriller

PREORDER JAMES COMEY'S BREATHTAKING NEW LEGAL THRILLER RED VERDICT NOW! New York lawyer Nora Carleton faces her biggest case yet in this gripping legal thriller and Times Book of the Month from the former director of the FBI, James Comey. EVEN FREE SPEECH HAS ITS PRICE. Nora Carleton is back working as a federal prosecutor in New York, but her city is in turmoil. Extremism is on the rise, funded from the shadows and growing in momentum online, with one person in particular fanning the flames. Radio and podcast host Samuel Buchanan uses his platform to spread disinformation and incite violence - and his mission is succeeding, with disturbances, clashes, and hate crimes rising across the country. As the threat of a major attack grows, and a United Nations rally is targeted, it seems Nora is the only one who can stop the spread. She must successfully convince a jury that some speech should be treated as a crime - or see her country torn apart. A powerful novel about the realities facing modern America, perfect for fans of Grisham, Connelly and Coben. 'Comey's best book yet' The Times Reviews for James Comey 'Truly outstanding' Harlan Coben 'Vivid and compelling' Ian Rankin 'Reads like Grisham' Daily Mail 'Drips with authenticity' Telegraph

FDR Drive

A Man Visited by History illuminates what author Steven P. Brown calls the "single Scottsboro case–related subject that has not been adequately explored to this point": the life of Judge James E. Horton, Jr., the white Alabama Eighth Circuit judge who set aside the jury's guilty verdict in the second trial of defendant Haywood Patterson in Decatur. Of the three trial judges and more than one hundred jurors who considered the cases of the Scottsboro defendants, Horton was the only one to find that the evidence against them was virtually nonexistent. Horton was then removed from further involvement with the cases and, despite being on the fast track to political prominence before the 1933 retrial of the Scottsboro defendants, was defeated for reelection for the Eighth Circuit in 1934 and spent the next four decades in relative obscurity.

A Man Visited by History

The first full biography of Granville Sharp, the founding figure of abolitionism in BritainIn London, 1765, Jonathan Strong was bludgeoned half to death by his enslaver. As the injured Strong staggered towards a doctor on Mincing Lane, he was noticed by the civil servant Granville Sharp (1735-1813)-a chance meeting which would set in motion a lifelong fight for justice.Appalled by the violence of slavery-a system with at the time some 900,000 victims in North America alone-Sharp took up the abolitionist cause with a zealous sense of moral duty. He taught himself law to challenge slavery in the Somerset case, wrote Britain's first antislavery tract, publicised the horrors of the Zong massacre, and was integral to the establishment of the free colony of Sierra Leone.Michael Bundock recounts Sharp's astonishing and largely forgotten life, which saw collaboration with Black activists Olaudah Equiano and Ottobah Cugoano and even brought Sharp to the attention of America's founding fathers. This is the extraordinary story of how the fight for abolition began, and the single-minded campaigner at its heart.

The Story of Granville Sharp and the Fight Against Slavery

A Meeting on Mincing Lane

A leading New York lawyer reveals his journey to professional success. Mark C. Zauderer gave up a budding career as a rock and roll disc jockey and became a high-profile lawyer. Fifty years later, he has represented clients in some of the most contentious litigations in US history and has become a recognized media guest, appearing on MSNBC, CNBC, ABC, NBC, PBS, and Fox Business and providing legal commentary in major print media. In Counsel, the Courtroom Is Open, Mark takes the reader behind the scenes of high-profile lawsuits and reveals the strategies that won him tough cases at trials and on appeals. He shares the wit, wisdom, and wonder of his unexpected path into the legal profession and the creativity that fueled his ascent. To aspiring entrepreneurs, whether they’re lawyers or inventors or just kids with a dream, Mark says: With a little confidence, you can do this, too. Long before he became a go-to source for media commentary on high profile trials, ranging from Donald Trump to Sean Combs—including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Reuters, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, and The Los Angeles Times – Zauderer started out working through the Vietnam War era, three high profile assassinations, the Kent State shootings, and the Cambodia invasion. Beginning his legal career as a law clerk to a federal judge and then as a junior attorney at a major law firm, he later joined several other lawyers willing to take a chance and founded a highly successful, entrepreneurial law firm. Over fifty years, the author has represented well-known individuals and businesses in some of the most significant litigations in the United States. Over the span of a decade, he was also the subject of nine half-hour interviews on PBS television. His path to success is a guide for all professionals with aspirations of “doing it on your own.”
