A well written tale of one person's victimization.
Mr. Hall did an excellent job sharing his experience with one of Houston's wealthiest families and the press.

Tremendously well written insight into a person & a system.
Roger Hall provides us an extraordinarily well written opportunity to be personally affected by the devastation that befalls an innocent individual judged guilty by a powerful media greatly influenced by wealthy puppeteers. Hall's transitions between chapters challenge you to put the book down. There is a tremendous amount of honesty and intimacy wrapped around thismodern man's encounter with the windmills of Texas. You cannot walk awayfrom this book without an altered perception of the media and the games thepowerful play.I re-read this book a year ago and it continues to stir theoccassional thought and to provide a filter through which the press isprocessed.It's a great read -- it's an even better story.

Thoroughly entertaining and informative - a hoot to read
Subtitled Winners and Losers in the Libel Business and written by a British lawyer about English law , at first blush one would think this text would be about as exciting as watching the proverbial paint dry, or a wet weekend locked away on holiday with your wife and her mother, or worse still, your husband and HIS mother. But you'd be wrong.Dead wrong. A more entertaining, witty, revelatory and balanced overview of name calling is hard to imagine. Of course it is much more than this, but greed, power, envy, malice are some of the forces that drive the business and some of the David and Goliath tales that feature in this text make great reading not to mention the schadenfreude the reader fees at the fall of the vainglorious and powerful.
