In 1992, three hundred innocent Haitian men, women, and children
who had qualified for political asylum in the United States were
detained at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba -- and told they might never be
freed. Charismatic democracy activist Yvonne Pascal and her fellow
refugees had no contact with the outside world, no lawyers, and no
hope . . . until a group of inspired Yale Law School students vowed
to free them.
Pitting the students and their untested professor Harold Koh
against Kenneth Starr, the Justice Department, the Pentagon, and
Presidents George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton, this real-life legal
thriller takes the reader from the halls of Yale and the federal
courts of New York to the slums of Port-au-Prince and the windswept
hills of Guantanamo Bay and ultimately to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Written with grace and passion, "Storming the Court" captures the
emotional highs and despairing lows of a legal education like no
other -- a high-stakes courtroom campaign against the White House
in the name of the greatest of American values: freedom.
