The stage so set, the film odyssey of a young graduate of Dalhousie Law School and a visit to the Hollywood studio which produced 'The Paper Chase' draws the distinction between real and fictional students of law. The hour ends with a portrait of the ultimate legal generalist: a small-town lawyer in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, the only province of Canada whose law is not rooted in Common Law. Host John Mortimer is the creator of British television's much-loved 'Rumpole of the Bailey' series.Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
