Resumen
John Mortimer has not only successfully juggled the roles of barrister and author in his life, but he has also combined them in his brilliant comic stories about Horace Rumpole - all of which are published by Penguin. The Scales of Justice contains one of Rumpoles finest cases and also an extract from the authors autobiography in which he describes how he grew into a way of life as a barrister who wrote or, as I wanted to think of it, as a writer who did barristering.<
