"The Art of Cross-Examination" by Francis L. Wellman is a legal text first published in 1903. This classic guide teaches trial attorneys how to cross-examine witnesses effectively, drawing from celebrated cases and legendary lawyers including Abraham Lincoln and Benjamin Cardozo. Wellman explores techniques for questioning perjured witnesses and experts, the psychology of testimony, and the dangers facing cross-examiners. Through dramatic courtroom battles involving the Vanderbilts and other prominent figures, the book reveals how skilled attorneys use wit, charm, and strategic questioning to uncover truth and sway juries.
