Trial & Error: The Education of a Freedom Lawyer

Poetry. Nominated for the Anisfield-Wolf Book Awards 2007. "Art Campbell provides us with brilliant flashes of insight into the mysterious workingsof the legal system. His prose poems are heart-wrenching, powerful, compelling. As an insider, Campbell is in a unique position to provide vivid glimpses at the colorful characters on both sides of the law. His prose poems are full of compassion and a generosity of spirit. In sharing with us his 'tales from the trenches,' he reveals the heart and soul of a young trial lawyer"--Nancy Kim, lawyer and author of the critically acclaimed novel Chinhominey's Secret.
