Laws, Courts, & Lawyers by James M. Murphy,  for sale $8.00 

Through the Years in Arizona

"The history of Arizona's Laws, courts, and lawyers is compelling -- and 
addictive.  Research takes you into adobe courtrooms with dirt floors, canyons 
known for Indian ambush, and paneled law offices with thick carpeting.  You 
meet the bristly Charlie Meyer, Tucson's frontier justice of the peace, the 
dedicated William T. Howell, author of Arizona's first code, and others such 
as Judge French who once saw his courtroom explode into a bloody melee of 
fighting, knifing, and shooting.  You uncover records of long-forgotten 
attorneys, some of them good, some of them scalawags -- all of them makers
of history."
