Clarence Darrow has long been an icon for many lawyers-the 'Attorney for the Damned,' as he was dubbed by journalist Lincoln Steffens. But the Darrow legend doesn’t square with the facts. Blowhard pulls back the curtain and exposes the real Darrow-the Darrow who believed the ends justified the means and that justice was nothing more than 'a pattern according to our own personal conceptions.' The Darrow who kidnapped and intimidated witnesses. The Darrow who bribed jurors. The Darrow who believed truth was expendable in pursuit of his own goals.You’ll never be able to look at Clarence Darrow the same way again.
