Osadome Ebie _omeno — Clarence Darrow has fascinated me for years. My father is a lawyer and I always tried to imagine that he was some sort of Clarence Darrow crusading against the corporations, the racists and the anti-evolutionary forces if necessary. I decided to read this book because my father mentioned that he wanted a copy. I figured it would be great book for us to talk about. We haven't done that yet. Farrell gave me a great appreciation for the complex man that was Clarence Darrow. Yes, he was an amazing lawyer who led labor to some of its greatest victories and gained one the NAACPs first key courtroom triumphs, but he was also a man that would take a case for money. He was a man, that Farrell's research shows, was probably not only guilty of bribing a jury despite being found innocent, but a man with so little conscience that he bribed a jury member in that case to help ensure his innocence. Farrell's book is a fairly quick read and he does a fine job with providing a succinct account of all of Darrow's major trials. He also quotes liberally from Darrow's closing arguments which gives the reader a true picture of just how Darrow won those cases. Usually, it had very little to do with the letter of the law. Darrow appealed to people's emotions. He did everything he could to put the jury members' in his clients' shoes. Often, he hardly talked about the specifics of the case at all. He would talk about how fate had led the murderer to his crime or how society had led the terrorist to the dynamite. Farrell also goes into Darrow's personal life. Darrow espoused free love. Of course it was free love for him. It doesn't seem that either of his wives got to practice his creed. I felt that this part of the book simply wasn't as strong or riveting as the courtroom battles. He seemed like an erudite philanderer which didn't compare to being perhaps the best attorney in the country. Farrell is able to portray Darrow in all his manifest moods. He was a dreamer and a cynic at the same time. He injected his clients' with hope, but often lost any hope that humans would rise above their current life. Most of all he was a fighter. He did not shy away from seemingly impossible battles. He took on battles that no one would take on like representing Loeb and Leopold in their infamous trial. There is much to admire in this remarkable flawed man and Farrell's book give us a clearer understanding of him. One last thing. The notes in the book are informative and entertaining. There is also a great discussion of the source material and where it can be found. You could read about Darrow for the rest of your life if you were so inclined.
