This true story of an epic courtroom showdown, where two of the nation's largest corporations were accused of causing the deaths of children from water contamination, was a #1 national bestseller and winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award. Described as "a page-turner filled with greed, duplicity, heartache, and bare-knuckle legal brinksmanship by The New York Times, A Civil Action is the searing, compelling tale of a legal system gone awry--one in which greed and power fight an unending struggle against justice. Yet it is also the story of how one man can ultimately make a difference. Representing the bereaved parents, the unlikeliest of heroes emerges: a young, flamboyant Porsche-driving lawyer who hopes to win millions of dollars and ends up nearly losing everything, including his sanity. With an unstoppable narrative power reminiscent of Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, A Civil Action is an unforgettable reading experience that will leave the reader both shocked and enlightened. A Civil Action was made into a movie starring John Travolta and Robert Duvall.Binding Type: Paperback

Works Great!
Color: 2Pcs-Large L Hooks-Orange, Color: 2Pcs-Large L Hooks-Orange
The hooks were the perfect length and strength to hold the decorative fence edging I was wanting. The magnets were also the right strength. I would buy these again!

Heavy duty - they have their limits
Color: 2Pcs-Large L Hooks-Black
These don’t hold a regular shovel, the magnet isn’t strong enough. They do work nice for plastic snow shovels. I use them in a Wick steel building. Nice to not have to drill into the walls. The depth is nice on them.
