Wright, William. Advice on the Study and Practice of the Law: With Directions for the Choice of Books. Addressed to Attorneys' Clerks. London: Printed for Charles Hunter, 1824. x, 248 pp. Reprint available Winter 2004 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. LCCN 2003053955. ISBN 1-58477-370-7. Cloth. $95. * Reprint of the third edition, enlarged. This book was written in the spirit of earlier guides by Fulbeck, Doderidge and Philips, but with a particular emphasis on the needs of clerks. It addresses a clerk's duties, the relationship between clerks and attorneys, ways to work more effectively and other practical matters. Wright is also interested in the clerk's intellectual development. To this end he recommends a rich curriculum of jurisprudential, political, historical and literary works and encourages the study of old court hands and Latin. Like his predecessors, Wright dispenses a good deal of moral advice as well. Equally fascinating and charming, this treatise offers a rich perspective on English clerks during the age of Austen, Dickens and Trollope.

Book Description
In his first three novels, Bill Fitzhugh created new strains of homicidal insects, sliced open the illegal transplant business, and sinfully skewered the Church and Madison Avenue with the same spear. Now he turns his attention to the hitmaking machinery of Music City, U.S.A.
Depending on your point of view, Fender Benders is either a skewed look at the country music industry or a clear-eyed view of a damn screwy business. It's a Grand Old Opera complete with murder, treachery, greed, drugs, twangy music, a love triangle, and the best fried swimps you'll ever put in your mouth.
First off, some folks down South have taken to dropping like flies. One minute they have a headache, the next they have a date at the funeral home. Seems some lunatic is tampering with boxes of headache powder, lacing them with sodium fluoroacetate. It's a nasty death, but at least it's quick, and it makes you forget you had a headache.
Second off, Eddie Long wants to move to Nashville and become a country music star, but right now he's stuck in Hinchcliff, Mississippi. Eddie's big break comes with a contract to tour the Mississippi casino circuit. While he's on the road, his wife dies, the victim of an apparent serial killer. The emotional turmoil of his wife's death causes Eddie to write the best song of his life. He takes it to Nashville, hooks up with a hoary management company, and launches his career.
Meanwhile, Jimmy Rogers is a freelance writer covering the Mississippi music scene. He loves writing and a girl named Megan. Jimmy decides early on that he is going to write Eddie's biography. But as he's researching Eddie's wife's murder, Jimmy comes to a surprising conclusion. He can't prove it, but publishing it might make his own career.
Megan is a smart, talented, and popular radio personality in a tiny market. But she wants a faster way to Easy Street. So she turns to Eddie. In Nashville.
Before it's all over, everybody's planning to make a killing one way or another -- including the kind that has nothing to do with money. But, as frequently happens on Music Row, things don't always turn out as planned.
Rip-roaring with the author's trademark blend of withering insight, divine absurdity, and an outrageous cast of players, Fender Benders is a hilarious, action-packed, no-punches-pulled look at the music makers and fakers who would do literally anything for a hit record. Here is the irrepressible Bill Fitzhugh at his wildest and funniest. Betcha dolla!

Refreshingly different view of reality.......2007-08-25
If you understand the statement "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture," then you'll know some of why I have such a hard time describing the extreme pleasure I had reading FENDER BENDERS.
Eddie Long had a plan. He wanted to become a country music star, so he set about making it happen. He practiced his guitar, took some classes at night school, and started playing at dives and bars, paying his dues. When his wife Tammy died suddenly, a deep and profound song found its way from his soul. Not a dry eye remained in the house the night he debuted "It Wasn't Supposed to End That Way." Eddie knew he had a hit, so he moved on to Nashville.
Now Jimmy Rogers followed Eddie's career from the very beginning. He figured there was a book in this story somewhere, depending on whether Eddie made it big or not. Jimmy's girl Megan had eyes for Eddie, too, but with something very different than a book in mind.
About the time Eddie met up with the artist management firm of Herron & Peavy in Nashville and struck the most unique contract known to country music, Jimmy was frantically working on Eddie's biography and discovering that Eddie's wife didn't die naturally. Neither did three other people who had headaches one night. Seems like a serial killer might be on the loose.
Add to that the fact that Herron and Peavy weren't exactly choir boys. Twisted legal contracts and complicated money schemes bring some disgruntled clients to this scenario. Take all these ingredients, mix, and you have the wild romp that ensues in FENDER BENDERS.
It takes an ingenious and wacky mind to take all these varied storylines and have them flow so incredibly smoothly. I'm amazed at just how well all the clues tumbled together and fell over each other. Coincidence? No way. Kind of like writing a song where all the elements must gel just right. Poetry to music. Understated hilarity is what Bill Fitzhugh brings with his writing.
Not knowing much about the country music business detracted nothing from my enjoyment of this inspired frenzy. Expert details were scattered liberally throughout the story. I never knew what the differences between, say, digital and analog recording sessions were, but I have a pretty good inkling about it now. Was this explanation just a way to show off Fitzhugh's research? Nope. A well calculated clue, just as every detail included was. Turns out that the explanation was integral to the story, I just didn't know it until later.
It bewildered me how what should have been such a simple story could become so incredibly elaborate yet could also be so very subtle as to have me doubting my own senses. I'm not quite sure which direction is up, but I am sure that this was a highly satisfying tale that left me breathless and smiling. Be sure to treat yourself with this refreshingly different view of reality.
Disclaimer: Any similarities between my husband "Bill Herron" and the character "Big Bill Herron" are completely imagined, except for the name.
Surreal Story Country Style.......2006-07-18
While most surreal authors such as Carl Hiaasen and Dave Barry base their novels in Florida it is refreshing to see someone such as Bill Fitzhugh prepared to make fun of other US states. This time in Fender Benders Fitzhugh gives us a surreal look into the American country music scene and although to be honest this novel isn't quite up to the quality of Cross Dressing and his previous work it is still a great and very enjoyable light read.
In Fender Benders Eddie Long is a talented writer and singer whose wife is pestering him to take a job in her dad's two dollar store as she has got sick of waiting for years for his career to begin. After taking a couple of headache tablets from a box tampered by a serial killer Eddie learns of her death while playing the casinos in Mississippi. In his grief he writes the best country song for years which attracts the attention of a couple of corrupt and self absorbed producers in Nashville who careers are on their last legs but see Eddie's song as a way to put themselves back on top. They try to take Eddie for a ride but he isn't as stupid as they think and has grand plans for marketing his song and himself. Throw in Jimmy, a disgruntled and jealous autobiographer who feels betrayed by Eddie, Jimmy's sugar daddy looking ex girlfriend Meagan who sees Eddie as her ticket to the good life, corrupt publishers, a 'swimp' cook who could have been huge if he hadn't had bad luck years before and you've got a great tale. After the first chapter it does start off a bit slow but once the main story gets going you can't put it down.
If you enjoy surreal novels check out Carl Hiassen, Dave Barry, C.J. Box and Max Barry as well.
Disturbingly hilarious!.......2006-02-02
Read it!
This was my first Fitzhugh book... and I couldn't put it down. (I know, skip the cliches!) But this one should be read in as close to one sitting as possible.
Really, Fitzhugh is funny... in the same vein as Carl Hiassen and Christopher Moore. "Fender Benders" characters are well-conceived... the story flows well... and the conclusion is mysterious enough. No, it's not a mystery... it's a darkly comic novel. Be sure to read "Heart Seizure", too.
Try it again, Naysayers, this book is a riot.......2005-04-21
How did anyone read Fender Benders and NOT know whodunnit? There are clues peppered throughout the story. Sure, some of them can be dismissed as circumstantial, but in the last scene when Eddie and Jimmy meet, the answer is all but spoon fed to the reader. If at that point you don't know who did it then you have not paid attention. The story was a hoot and the ending satisfied. In typical Fitzhugh fashion the tale is decorated in rich, fine-eyed detail, from the machinations of NashVegas to the lives and motivations of the wannabe stars who are drawn to the lights.
Preposterous.......2005-04-13
Journeyman guitarist Eddie Long gets his big break following his wife's death. His debut album goes double platinum. Sad sack Jimmy Rogers gets his big break when he accuses Eddie Long of murder and the resulting tell all book rises to the top of the NY Times bestsellers list. Jimmy's two-timing girlfriend Megan gets what she deserves--a sock in the jaw by Eddie Long. Scumbag producer Big Bill Heron also gets what he deserves a shot in the forehead by an old client who he double-crossed decades earlier. Songwriter Whitney never gets anyting. Short order cook Otis loses his wife to a heart attack. Philandering Carl the sporting goods salesman tampers with evidence at a murder scene and promptly disappears from the story. Franklin Peavey arranges for a contract hit on his partner. Too many characters. Too many loose ends. Too many plot lines that go nowhere. And the clincher--the author never discloses whether Eddie Long is in fact a serial murderer. This is unforgiveable because the book is written from an omniscient point of view. The storyteller knows all, and therefore knows the identity of the real killer, but he chooses not to tell. Not fair, especially after drudging through 300 plus pages of drivel.
Product Description

Joe Bender ROCKS!!!.......2007-03-26
Joe Bender is a staple part of my language arts class year after year. Stuck to my whiteboard, he always brings out the creativity (and sense of humor) of even my most reluctant sixth graders. He does tend to break (I am now on my 5th Joe) after repeated bending - but even then my kids come up with all kinds of creative uses for him. ("Hospitalized Joe"...) A lot of fun!!!
Worth the breaking.......2004-12-21
I buy my brother a toy every year for Christmas (even though we're both now well into our 20's). I bought Joe Bender a few years ago, and it amused my brother for hours! And that's saying a lot for my brother. But after several weeks, he broke it. He even tried to tape him up to save him. I decided that this year is the year to bring Joe Bender back to life for my brother. It might not be the most sturdy of wire, but it's so much fun it's worth the money.
Snaps like a cheap paper clip, but LOTS of fun........2002-08-16
I'm an adult and I bought this toy for myself to use in a photography study of poseable action figure emotion.
I had it less than one day and it stood up to about 45 minutes of bending before it broke in two places. It's coated in rubber, but its bendability is highly suspect. I would have spent twice as much for such a fun toy if it would have lasted a month instead of just a day.
Boo for Hog Wild Toys.
The 103rd Dalmation!.......2000-11-29
The most loyal pet I'll ever own. He rode around town on the hood of my car in the snow yesterday and is now waiting patiently on the mantle for his next adventure.
Breakable Bender!.......2000-07-14
I purchased this book/toy for an adult as a gift. It is very fragile. Even with careful bending, the toy broke almost immediately. The book and toy are a very cute idea, but with the toy being very breakable, its not worth it! If you buy the book/toy, don't expect to move it as the book portrays!
