'Works of Robert G. Ingersoll, Volume 10 - Legal' Summary
This volume captures the courtroom drama and legal brilliance of Robert G. Ingersoll, one of the most renowned trial lawyers of his era. Ingersoll's opening and closing arguments in the Star Route Trials, which exposed high-level corruption in the U.S. Post Office system, are considered masterpieces of forensic power and oratorical skill. Ingersoll's prodigious memory, knowledge of the law, and ability to connect with juries made him a formidable advocate. His arguments were meticulously crafted, combining logical reasoning with emotional appeals. He was known for his fairness, candor, and humor, which earned him the respect of both judges and adversaries. In addition to the Star Route Trials, this volume includes summations from three other notable cases: the Munn Trial, the Davis Will Case, and the Russell Case. These cases demonstrate Ingersoll's versatility and mastery of courtroom strategy. Through these transcripts, readers gain a glimpse into the mind of a legal giant and witness the power of eloquence in the pursuit of justice.Book Details
