Stickney's Cracker Barrel: Antics of Lawyers and Judges in San
Diego in the Early Part of this Century. By Jeff Stickney. San Diego: Law
Library Justice Foundation, 1982. Illustrations. Index. 116 pages. $6.00.
Many of Stickney's anecdotes from the San Diego County Bar
Associations publication, Dicta, have been reprinted in a single
delightful volume. The book contains stories of personalities of the local bar,
court procedures, buildings and facilities, and many cases from the local
courts. The illustrations help convey the flavor of the law and lawyers in
early San Diego. Cracker Barrel is both good fun and a useful source on
San Diego history.
