Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Book. Signed by Author! Very slight wear to cover corners. Slight shelfwear & small crease to dust jacket. SIGNED BY AUTHOR ON TITLE PG! From Library Journal: "Vermont attorney Langrock, who represents the good and the not-so-good citizens of his state, has written a witty recollection of his favorite cases. Typical of these cases is one he sees as the most significant accomplishment of his career. Under a federal program, the author helped hire Jamaican workers for the Shoreham Co-operative Apple Growers Association in Vermont's Champlain Valley. But the U.S. Department of Labor threw obstacles in the workers' way as they were being transported to Vermont. Langrock details his efforts on behalf of the apple growers, also describing the proper way to pick McIntosh apples, his trip to Jamaica, and Vermont's agricultural history. In an easy-going style, Langrock comments on the stuffed shirts and self-important people he comes across and speaks affectionately about his clients and his career. Recommended for readers with a love of either the law or Vermont."
