question that has vexed leading thinkers throughout history: how does one improve one’s Lawmanship? Whitelocke has distilled a lifetime of experience, meditation and trial-and-error (of law and fact) into this frank, fearless and highly readable text, which will almost certainly come to be regarded as the last word on this contentious topic. On Lawmanship contains a comprehensive summary of everything an aspiring lawman needs to know, from the appropriate attire for cassowary hunting to creative techniques for courting lawyeresses, from controversial modern training methods to mastering the complexities of the written word. On Lawmanship has been translated into thirteen (13) languages, seven (7) of which are still spoken and is rumoured to be kept on the bedside table of a substantial minority of judges of the High Court of Australia.
