Book Reviews of The Winning Brief: 100 Tips for Persuasive Briefing in Trial and Appellate Courts

Book Review: Kindle Format Not Well-Suited for Reference Style
Summary: 2 Stars

This is a great book, filled with great advice, from a great legal writing professional. Unfortunately, the Kindle version of this book fails to earn similar praise. There is no "master" list of the 100 tips to quickly browse. The examples, in image format, are hard to read--if not impossible on the small screen. There's no quick-flipping to the tips you want--a problem inherent to the Kindle format. So while the book and its content may be wonderful, if not essential, the Kindle format guts its value. Not bad for reading on the train, but useless when you're writing a brief at your desk.
