Habeas Circus: Illegal Humor

by Alan Gerson

With his unique, eye-tickling artwork, Alan Gerson looks at the American justice system with tongue planted firmly in cheek. The humor is sometimes caustic, often critical, and always irreverent, as Gerson makes us realize that the legal system isn’t as bad as we thought it was―it’s worse. Find out which circus stars file frivolous appeals, who served on Santa’s jury, and why nobody wants Satan for a witness. The laughs come quickly in this witty, strikingly illustrated book.
