Freedom Lawyers of America

Are you one of the millions who think there is no such thing as an honest
lawyer who cares more for righteousness, reason, and reality than for
process, payoff, and power? You'd be wrong. Shelly Waxman was a made man, an
insider who had only to protect the powerful and sacrifice the expendable to
become a highly placed Federal lawyer, perhaps someday a judge. Instead he
blew the whistle on prejudice, corruption, and even murder taking place
behind the bar, for which act of justice he was thrown from the halls of
power. Eschewing the paneled office, the Armani and the Rolex, and the favor
of such luminaries as the paranoid J.Edgar Hoover, Shelly devoted himself to
defending the truth. This book is not a tale of only one such courageous
act, but of many such cases, some you will recognize from the front pages of
the last thirty years of our history. "In The Teeth Of The Wind" reads like
pulp fiction, exciting and surprising, with a cast of quirky characters, but
it is all true. If you care about the degeneration of the American system of
justice, and you would like to know about one man's lifelong struggle to keep
it the honorable institution it was created to be, then put this book in your
shopping cart now.
