About this audiobook
Gathering the full run of Arthur Cheney Train's Mr. Tutt stories, Mysterious Cases of Mr. Tutt presents a humane, witty, and legally astute portrait of American justice in the early twentieth century. Centered on the shrewd, elderly attorney Ephraim Tutt, these tales blend courtroom drama, detective fiction, social satire, and moral fable. Train's prose is brisk yet urbane, attentive both to procedural detail and to the comic contradictions of law as practiced among the powerful and the vulnerable. Arthur Cheney Train was unusually equipped to create such fiction. A Harvard-trained lawyer and former assistant district attorney in New York County, he knew the machinery of prosecution, evidence, plea bargaining, and courtroom performance from within. His legal background, combined with a reform-minded imagination, allowed him to expose the gap between technical legality and substantive justice. Mr. Tutt embodies Train's ideal advocate: learned, eccentric, compassionate, and willing to outwit rigid systems in defense of human decency. This complete volume is highly recommended to readers of classic legal fiction, Golden Age mystery, and American social comedy. It rewards those interested not only in ingenious cases, but in the ethical drama of advocacy itself.
