THIS FOURTH AND FINAL BOOK in the Montana Courthouse Tales series carries readers to altogether new and different destinations. Join the author in a midnight poker game in Sweet Grass County's Grand Hotel. Watch a chess match between two legendary courtroom adversaries in a Broadwater County saloon. Climb aboard the ghostly Jawbone Railroad to hear tales from Wheatland County. Travel to an old theater, to local museums, and to the courthouses themselves, to hear the truth as only the ghosts themselves can tell it. Part travelogue, part cultural commentary, part primer on the American legal system, Courting Law - like the other books in the series -is much more than a just a historical chronicle. It's what justice looks like at the grassroots level. And just as he did before, Olson proves yet again that, when it comes to the history of Justice in Montana, the ghosts have the last word on the Truth. "It's a shame Montana only has 56 counties. That imposes a limit upon Olson's storytelling that seems almost unfair. His 4th volume of You-Are-There Courthouse Tales introduces us to new characters as compelling as those we met in preceding ones. This is Montana history, distilled through county courthouses and served straight up. Belly up to the bench (be sure to remove your hat in the judge's presence) and drink it down." Gwen Florio, Pinckley Prize winning author of Montana and the other Lola Wicks Mysteries "From the trenches of important and complex trials, written by a great innovative trial lawyer. Full of strategy and real-life intrigue. Relevant, fun reading." Dr. William Stratford, Montana Forensic Psychiatrist
