Why Must Read Gideon's Trumpet: How One Man, a Poor Prisoner, Took His Case to the Supreme Court-and Changed the Law of the United States?

I am taking a Modern American Law class this semester, and this book was one of the required texts. The book is deceiving because its size does not reflect the amount of information it provides on every single page. This book and its content fascinated me from page one. By the time you get to the end of this book, you feel as if you've played a major part in this case. This is a fabulous book, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone, law student or not.
