From the Author:
One of these days a tired lawyer, in retreat from the quickly
running statute of limitations, and hiding out in a bookstore as I
have done, will discover this book. And it may just happen that one
or two of the remarks that follow will remind the tired counselor
that the ungrateful client, the unresponsive judge, the damnation
of deadlines are all common to those of us who must extract a
living from the contention of others.
