The Innocent Man by John Grisham
In the major league draft of 1971, the first player chosen from the State of Oklahoma was Ron Williamson. When he signed with the Oakland A's, he said goodbye to his hometown of Ada and left to pursue his dreams of big league glory. Six years later he was back, his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits. This book tells his story.
A true story, very well told – a true Grisham classic * London Evening Standard *
A true story, very well told * i *
horrifying, but gripping * EVENT magazine, The Mail on Sunday *
Such strong emotions are, for me at least, the sign that a True Crime book has done a complete and comprehensive job of telling the storyI think the book will have wide appeal. Fans of John Grisham's fiction will not be disappointed and should definitely be enticed to make the move to his non-fiction. For those readers interested in the American justice system and the question of Death Row then I believe this book offers a close look into the inner machinations of that system. And for lovers of True Crime - like me, then this book is most certainly up there with some of the better ones I have read.” 4 ½ star review * TheBookbag.co.uk *
carefully plotted, absorbing * Real Crime *
