The corpulent "great defender of muddled and sinful humanity" joins a winning cast--which includes his splendid wife, Hilda, his philandering colleague, Claude Erskine-Brown, and his old enemy, the pompous and biased Judge Bullingham--in this marvelous collection of the bluff barrister's finest moments.

If you loved the PBS series with Leo McKern, you will enjoy these stories just as much. Rumpole is an old darling.
