A powerful true story about the potential for mercy to redeem us,
and a clarion call to fix our broken system of justice--from one of
the most brilliant and influential lawyers of our time
Bryan Stevenson was a young lawyer when he founded the Equal
Justice Initiative, a legal practice dedicated to defending those
most desperate and in need: the poor, the wrongly condemned, and
women and children trapped in the farthest reaches of our criminal
justice system. One of his first cases was that of Walter
McMillian, a young man who was sentenced to die for a notorious
murder he insisted he didn't commit. The case drew Bryan into a
tangle of conspiracy, political machination, and legal
brinksmanship--and transformed his understanding of mercy and
justice forever.
"Just Mercy "is at once an unforgettable account of an idealistic,
gifted young lawyer's coming of age, a moving window into the lives
of those he has defended, and an inspiring argument for compassion
in the pursuit of justice.
Praise for "Just Mercy"
"Words such as "important" and "compelling" may have lost their
force through overuse, but to read this book is to feel that they
have been restored, along with one's hopes for humanity."--Tracy
Kidder
"Bryan Stevenson is America's young Nelson Mandela--a brilliant
lawyer fighting with courage and conviction to guarantee justice
for all."--Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate
