Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

This authoritative, in-depth, revealing, and wonderfully-written book tells the true story of an obsessed young lawyer who gave up everything to fight two prestigious law firms and the corporations they represented, on behalf of the families of Woburn, Massachusetts, whose loved ones had died because they drank the town's water.


Review:

"'Snow Falling on Cedars' announces the emergence of a skillful writer."

Pico Iyer

Review:

"...[A]side from the requisite twists of the mystery genre, there are no surprises in this novel. It demands little from the reader. Instead, it 'gives' us very much: maritime lore, the forensic lab, and a previously underplayed historical event....The big issues--racism, for example--are dealt with in the earnest but archly simplistic tones of Hollywood....Dilemmas of the soul are wrapped up in a quick flourish of good solid pioneer pragmatism."

Charles Johnson
