A Sunday Times bestseller that looks at the life and work of criminal barrister Jeremy Hutchinson, focusing on the society-changing trials of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Hutchinson defended the publication of Lady Chatterley’s Lover, and also defended George Blake, Christine Keeler, Great Train robber Charlie Wilson, art faker Tom Keating and Howard Marks.
“Jeremy Hutchinson’s Case Histories… makes a compelling read, and is a real contribution to the history of 20th-century English mentalities. It is also a first-rate lesson in simple humanity… The pungency, intelligence and humour of [Thomas] Grant and his subject make this the most enlivening of case-books… [Jeremy Hutchinson] is abundant in the qualities of empathy, consideration and humour. He manages to be both charming and shatteringly truthful.” The Guardian
