The Man of Last Resort – Melville Davisson Post – 1919

The creator of Randolph Mason again introduces this unscrupulous lawyer and furnishes five more stories to show the defects in criminal law and how skillful rogues may commit not a few of the higher crimes in such manner as to render the law powerless to punish them when aided and abetted by a conscienceless lawyer. The separate titles are: The Governor’s Machine, Mrs. Van Barton, Once in Jeopardy, The Grazier, and The Rule Against Carper Publishers Weekly.
