"Lay down your Law books, now they're no d*** good"
Scott Turow's newest book, Ordinary Heroes, is not a book about lawyers in the sense his previous novels were. The protagonist is a JAG lawyer during WWII, but that is completely secondary. He gets drawn into combat including the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes. I thought the story was very good, Turow always writes well, and this novel seems Hemingwayesque to me, a "Man at War" kind of atmosphere.
