Sir Sydney Kentridge QC comments: 'The author's accounts of Carson's cases make riveting reading for lawyers and general readers alike.' This is the story of the life of Edward Carson up to 1910, with a strong emphasis on his career as an advocate. Well-known for his defence of the Marquess of Queensbury in the Oscar Wilde trial, Carson acted in many other celebrated cases involving well-known names such as Jameson (of the Jameson Raid), Lever, Cadbury and Gilbert (of Gilbert and Sullivan). He also successfully prosecuted the man who, circumstantial evidence shows, may well have been Jack the Ripper.
