The Michigan Bar Journal just reviewed my book:

That’s the magazine sent to the lawyers who are members of the Michigan Bar.  And, it’s not written in legalese.

I mentioned a while back that someone had gotten me a copy of the Italian Hall coroner inquest transcript.  This is the document that “went missing” for almost half a century and then two copies appeared that were hard to read.  The one I was given is very clear.  My publisher has agreed to make a copy of it so that people who are interested in looking into the story in more depth can obtain a copy for themselves.  Before this, the only way you could examine a copy would be to travel to Houghton or Calumet and look at the copies there.  I also wrote an introduction for it that explains in detail why the transcript is important and what we can learn from it.  Here’s the cover:

This will help up set the record straight on a few more myths that won’t seem to die.

I’ll let you know when we have an exact release date set.
