Gladiator-at-Law
Caution! You are about to enter a world...
...where all engineering ingenuity has been employed for public spectacles of torture and death.
...where the stock market operated with pari-mutuel machines.
...where a court clerk transcribes testimony on punch cards, then feeds it to a jury machine.
...where the dream real-estate development of today has become a cracked-concrete savage jungle.
In this world, young lawyer Charles Mundin battles a great combine of
corporate interest - battles them in board meetings and in dark alley - in a struggle that lays bare some brutal promises about the
future... promises we are beginning to make right now.
