Grant B. Cooper is remembered as one of the most prolific attorneys of twentieth-century America. He made courtroom history in his effort to secure the first death penalty conviction under the Little Lindbergh Law. He became internationally known as the attorney for Dr. Bernard Finch, who was accused of murdering his wife, and as the attorney for the infamous Sirhan Sirhan, the man who assassinated presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy. An exceptional man both in and out of the courtroom, Grant was born into a family that has served the United States for generations. He soared as a charismatic, intelligent attorney unafraid of taking on the politics and policework driven by the mob in 1940s Los Angeles, then characterized by the United States Attorney General as “the most corrupt city in America.” Grant etched himself into America’s history as one of the finest attorneys this country has ever known. Scrupulously researched and epic in scope, Grant Justice brings alive not only the most scandalous trials of the 1900s, but the man who made them his life.

Round Two from the amazing life and times of legendary South Florida attorney Lewis Ress takes readers from Brooklyn in the 1940s via a spell in a top-secret Army Department (and a transatlantic solo flight in a replica Spirit of St Louis) to adventures in and out of the courtroom in a sometimes rougher-than-ready Fifties and Sixties Miami. Fans of Strange Cases and Wild Tales will need no introduction to the author's brilliant and fast-paced story telling laced with salty evocations of the human carnival of the era and shot through with compassionate insight. From a failed campaign for Congress (he lost to the local machine, much to his wife's relief) to the brief but memorable career of Herbie the Chiropractor; from advising the heir to Colonel Sanders (and falling out with Buddy Hackett) to night-time jogging with Vitas Gerulaitis, the stories keep on coming. Larry, the charismatic wheeler-dealer from the last book, needs to be rescued from yet another risky deal. A bridge-playing mobster needs help to find his missing daughter? All this and more, along with sage advice against buying a lottery ticket-you might win. Welcome to Round Two!

Land Use Law in Florida presents an in-depth analysis of land use law common to many states across the United States, using Florida cases and statutes as examples. Florida case law is an important course of study for planners, as the state has its own legal framework that governs how people may use land, with regulation that has evolved to include state-directed urban and regional planning. The book addresses issues in a case format, including planning, land development regulation, property rights, real estate development and land use, transportation, and environmental regulation. Each chapter summarizes the rules that a reader should draw from the cases, making it useful as a reference for practicing professionals and as a teaching tool for planning students who do not have experience in reading law. This text is invaluable for attorneys; professional planners; environmental, property rights, and neighborhood activists; and local government employees who need to understand the rules that govern how property owners may use land in Florida and around the country.

Are you a Christian? Are you sure? One Taken is the book a Christian in doubt about their faith would receive if they asked a lawyer to turn the relevant verses of the New Testament into an easy-to-follow manual on how to be sure they are a Christian. Why would someone turn to a lawyer with questions about their faith? Lawyers have a valuable set of skills. They typically use those skills to help clients work through complex legal problems, but those skills are readily transferable to working through other kinds of problems as well. One Taken provides uncertain Christians a lawyer's treatment of everything the New Testament says about how to be sure you are a Christian. It collects all of the verses that, taken together, answer that question, and presents them in an organized, highly accessible way with limited commentary. "The Bible tells us that blessed is the man who delights in the Word of the Lord and meditates on it day and night. Brett's thought-provoking book does just that. It takes you on a journey of wrestling with the complexities of the Scripture and discovering who Jesus is.... In the end, we all need Jesus!" -Tom Allen, Head Football Coach, Indiana University, Big Ten and AFCA Coach of the Year "Brilliantly organized and executed, convicting and encouraging, One Taken provides clarity and guidance for those striving to be true disciples of Jesus." -Lance Curry, Appellate Attorney "One Taken allows us to examine our lives and reach our own verdict on our Christianity." -Art Dykstra, Pastor, Feather Sound Church "One Taken is a well-researched and informative roadmap of the answers to questions anyone seeking Christianity must ask themselves." -Steve Farrar, Retired Attorney
