'This is, without doubt, a special book ... I have read many judicial biographies and autobiographies but this one stands out for the serious business and the special cause which John Baker has stood for: it is a great addition to the world of judicial biography':Phillip Taylor MBE, Richmond Chambers Reviews.'Entertaining ... this is an engaging account of a fascinating man, whose one philosophy saw the law as a means to achieve justice rather than an obstacle to the right result'.John Cooper, Media Review, The Times'His Honour John Baker, knows how to tell a good story ... there is much to enjoy in these memoirs. Well known figures, political and non political populate its pages but they never intrude on ... [a] story set against the wider canvas of post-war British life'Paul Hunt, Club News'A candid and often humorous autobiography'Parkshot News
