Jeremy Hutchinson'S Case Histories

'Thomas Grant has brought together Hutchinson's greatest legal hits, producing a fascinating episodic cultural history of post-war Britain that chronicles the end of deference and secrecy, and the advent of a more permissive society ...Grant brings out the essence of each case, and Hutchinson's role, with clarity and wit' - Ben Macintyre, The Times

'An excellent book ...Grant recounts these trials in limpid prose which clarifies obscurities. A delicious flavouring of cool irony, which is so much more effective than hot indignation, covers his treatment of the small mindedness and cheapness behind some prosecutions' - Richard Davenport-Hines, Guardian
