Hal Christensen, Samurai Lawyer

Harold G. Christensen recently published “Samurai Lawyer,” a short book which I am told is a poetic description of his journey through more than a thousand cases.  Hal is a great lawyer that has been practicing law for more than fifty years.  His book has also been recommended by Professor John Flynn, Senator Orrin Hatch, and Judge Dee Benson.  I have not yet read the book but, knowing Hal and his excellent writing skills and critical thinking, I intend to this weekend.  According to Amazon.com, the book “parallel[s] the reality of every-day trial practice with the discipline and philosophy of a Samurai Warrior, [and] offers wisdom that may help others discover their own path in practice and in life.”  Pick up a copy at the King’s English Book Shop (shameless plug for a great local bookseller located at 1511 South 1500 East in Salt Lake City) or online.  Happy reading!
