The definitive account of the O.J. Simpson trial, The People v. O.J. Simpson is a prodigious feat of reporting that could only have been written by the foremost legal journalist of our time.

Writing less than a year after the infamous verdict, Jeffrey Toobin explores the secret dealings & manoeuvring on both sides of the case, & how a combination of the prosecution’s over-confidence, the defence’s shrewdness, & the Los Angeles Police Department’s incendiary history with the city’s African-American community, gave a jury what it needed: reasonable doubt.

Rich in character, as propulsive as a legal thriller, this enduring narrative continues to shock & fascinate with its candid depiction of the human drama that upended the world.

The People v. O.J. Simpson tells the whole story, from the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson & Ronald Goldman to the ruthless gamesmanship behind the scenes of the trial of the century.

Once we thought of a frontline village as a heap of shattered ruins in a pockmarked earth bordering the tumbled wilderness of No Man's L&. Now there are hundreds of British frontline towns & villages along our coasts, in the shadow of the menace, but as yet preserved from the worst of war's ravages. No Man's Land is our own protecting element, the sea, where the Royal Navy rides & rules.' Leonard Marshall Gander, May 1940. The accounts that we are accustomed to hearing of World War II are those of fierce battles, lost relatives, horrendous voyages fraught with danger, & traumatic sights & experiences.
