Book Synopsis
A portrait of the lawyers who serve the diverse constituencies of the conservative movement. It explains what unites and divides lawyers for the three major groups - social conservatives, libertarians, and business advocates - that have coalesced in recent decades behind the Republican Party.

Trade Review
"Presenting her subjects straight-forwardly, without making judgments about the issues that they and their organizations support, Ann Southworth rejects the notion that the lawyers for the right are less deserving than lawyers for the left of the 'cause lawyer' title. The topic is fascinating. Southworth's portraits and analyses of the various parties, especially the mediators of the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation, are illuminating. And the tone is just right." - Bryant Garth, Southwestern Law School"
