Negative Positive
Title: Mark Twain's idea of a "classic".
Review: Everyone talks about it, but noone wants to read it. The book has about 5 pages of good advice. Unfortunately, it is distributed across 450 pages of bloated reminiscenses by windbags who bored even their contemporaries to death with endless tales of their salad days in court. Sad. It's about as useful in modern litigation as a copy of Hammurabi's code, but not nearly as succinct.Do yourself a favor and get a copy of Nolo's Deposition Handbook, which has about 300 pages of good advice conveniently distributed over 300 pages of text.
