To add to this list, we direct readers to the August edition of the ABA Journal magazine for a list of the "25 Greatest Law Novels - Ever."
The ABA Journal article describes these novels as "the best portrayals
of lawyers and the law." The list strictly limited to "novels." As a
result, "true crime" sagas, such as Truman Capote's In Cold Blood were not included in the list.
We also direct you to the ABA Journal's poll
(scroll down, in the right column) of your favorite law novel. You may
vote for one of the twenty-five law novels in the Journal's list or for
a law novel not on the list.
Other related book lists are set out below:
