And on an upbeat note, the last course in this bundle features Billy's fascinating look at one of the most famous cases tried by Abraham Lincoln during his 30-year law practice -- the "Almanac Trial"! Billy describes Lincoln's masterful techniques in his cross-examination of his opponent's main witness, his direct examination of his own expert witness, and in his emotional closing argument. Most importantly, Billy demonstrates how these techniques provide useful lessons and inspiration for modern-day litigators over 160 years later.
