"Asa Rountree was born in Birmingham, Alabama. A graduate of the University of Alabama and Harvard Law School, he practiced law as corporate litigator and trial lawyer. He spent most of his career in New York City as a partner at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, before he retired from that firm and returned to Birmingham as a shareholder at Maynard, Cooper & Gale, P.C. He was a prolific and broad ranging writer and penned titles such as The Roman Republic: An Historical Parallel?; Human Nature, Morality, and the State; and Words: Essays and Other Words. He was, he like to say, a consummate collector of rejection slips. This book collects Asa's well-honed views on how to practice law. His advice is timeless and true, funny and practical. It also hints at the great pleasure that can be had in aiming for excellence as a lawyer. Asa's memos shaped generations of lawyers who had the good luck to work with him"--Page 4 of cover.
