Résumé
First published in 1903, The Art of Cross-Examination distills the tactics and psychology that govern adversarial questioning. Moving between crisp maxims and transcripts from celebrated trials, Francis L. Wellman offers a manual that is part treatise, part casebook. He treats preparation, the sequencing and economy of questions, control of hostile witnesses, impeachment by prior inconsistent statements, and the uses-and dangers-of suggestion, memory, and demeanor.
Lucid, wry Edwardian prose anchors the work in the Progressive Era's culture of advocacy. Wellman wrote from hard-earned experience. A prominent New York trial lawyer and former assistant district attorney, he tried numerous civil and criminal cases, observing juries, witnesses, and opponents at close range. His dual vantage-prosecutor and defense advocate-shaped his view that cross-examination is less bravado than disciplined testing of credibility, bounded by fairness.
The book crystallizes lessons rarely taught in the law schools of his day, translating craft into teachable principles. This classic rewards lawyers, students, and readers of rhetoric or legal history. Read it to sharpen courtroom technique, grasp how fact-finders are moved, and engage a tradition that still shapes practice. As guide and caution, it refines judgment. Quickie Classics summarizes timeless works with precision, preserving the author's voice and keeping the prose clear, fast, and readable-distilled, never diluted.
