| Synopsis: |
In The Story of My Life recounts, and reflects on, his more than fifty years as a corporate, labour, and criminal lawyer, including the most celebrated and notorious cases of his day: establishing the legal right of a union to strike in the Woodworkers' Conspiracy Case exposing, on behalf of the United Mine Workers, the shocking conditions in the mines and the widespread use of child labour defending Leopold and Loeb in the Chicago "thrill" murder case defending a teacher's right to present the Darwinian theory of evolution in the famous Scopes trial fighting racial hatred in the Sweet anti-Negro and the Scottsboro cases and much more. Written in his disarming, conversational style, and full of refreshingly relevant views on capital punishment, civil liberties, and the judicial system, Darrow's autobiography is a fitting final summation of a remarkable life. |
