520 _a"While there has been much written about Clarence Darrow, nothing gives quite the full flavour of the man as do these addresses. Here is Darrow in the raw - as fresh as the day he spoke. These pages contain for the most part addresses which Darrow delivered to juries in criminal cases. There are in addition speeches on controversial people and subjects. Throughout each of them runs a common thread - his antagonism toward bigotry, prejudice, ignorance, and hate." -- from the Foreword by Justice William O. Douglas.
