Quite Useful

I am in my third year of lawschool and have completed 6 credits in legal research and writing. Nevertheless I find this book to be quite useful. Legal research and writing is an arcane beast which no single course or volume could ever tame. The value of this summary is in the straight forward and fairly broad outline of the fundamentals. Do not confuse this book with cure all for the woes of legal research and writing. Use it as a resource of fundamentals, and it will prove very valuable. Other very useful references are the ALWD manual and "The Paralegal's Guide to Mircosoft Office System", and "Academic Legal Writing" by Volokh.
