From the introductions to A Documentary Companion to A Civil Action "A Civil Action and A Documentary Companion taken together offer...the fullest opportunity to render your own judgment about the merits of the case itself and how well or poorly the civil justice system dealt with it." Jonathan Harr, author of A Civil Action "You have the benefit of Jonathan Harr's brilliant portrayal in A Civil Action of the human drama of this litigation. You now have, thanks to the work of Professors Grossman and Vaughn, a unique opportunity to examine firsthand the legal implements we wielded. You can judge for yourself how effective they were in resolving that conflict." Jan Richard Schlictmann, attorney for the plaintiffs
