Kings of Tort

With over 200 individual fact citations into over 100 different sources, Kings of Tort has been impeccably researched. It used primary sources like the highly acclaimed book by Michael Orey entitled Assuming the Risk and Dan Zegart's book Civil Warriors. The book has also sourced information via articles from publications and media outlets such as the Clarion Ledger, the Sun Herald, the Northeast MS Daily Journal, WLBT, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the New Yorker, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, Time Magazine, PBS Frontline and Vanity Fair. That research has been supplemented with interviews and perspective from those on all sides of this complicated story. All that were significantly involved in this story were invited in writing to participate. Most notably, Dickie Scruggs, Paul Minor, former Attorney General Mike Moore and Attorney General Jim Hood all declined (either directly or through legal counsel) to be interviewed after multiple attempts.
