This book is a direct, to-the-point guide to successfully master that art, tell that story, and try your case in New York State court. It is written in a conversational tone and deliberately brief to avoid the boredom that causes many students to throw books aside and jurors to lose attention during your case. Instead of telling you what to do, it contains detailed examples that illustrate how to implement the recommended techniques. It contains specific methods used by the most successful New York civil and criminal attorneys to win their cases and explores the right way to conduct each stage of the trial as well as discussing expert testimony, evidence, and the law of trial advocacy in New York, which will help you win your case and tell your story"--

Elie Wiesel is a master storyteller with the ability to use storytelling as a form of activism. From his landmark memoir Night to his novels and numerous retellings of Hasidic legends, Wiesel's literature emphasizes storytelling, and he frequently refers to himself as a storyteller rather than an author or historian. In this work, essays examine Wiesel's roots in Jewish storytelling traditions; influences from religious, folk, and secular sources; education; Yiddish background; Holocaust experience; and writing style. Emphasized throughout is Wiesel's use of multiple sources in an effort to reach diverse audiences.
