Essential reading for anyone wanting to be a good litigator

I found this book to be the least boring law book during my time as a student. Filled with practical advice, the book is organized in order from the inception of a case to the trial. It teaches you exactly what to, how to, and the proper order in which to prepare for everything - from how to create your own trial book to tactical advice about dealing with the opposing party during pretrial communication. For someone who is interested in the ACTUAL practice of litigation, this is the book for you! I must confess that I read this text while taking the class with the Author, and as he is very enthusiastic about the litigation system, I read it with his voice in mind. However, upon re-examination of the book years later, I found that it can easily stand on its own - one can almost get as much out of it as if being simultaneously instructed by the author.
