| Here is a collection of colorful short stories that are jam-packed with nimble-witted humor and legal strategy. The chief attraction of the book is Mr. Tutt, a legal sharpshooter with a heart of gold. Tutt is his assistant--no relation, they just happen to have the same name. To Mr. Tutt's office come all kinds of people, from the underdog who has been wronged to the fast-working chiseler. There are the stories about Andrew, the dog with a reputation; Mock Hen, the Chinese who could be in two places at once; and the glamorous creature with china-blue eyes. Short stories include "The Human Element;" "Mock Hen and Mock Turtle;" "Samuel and Delilah;" "The Dog Andrew;" "Wile Versus Guile;" "The Hepplewhite Tramp;" and "Lallapaloosa Limited." |
