[Read by Frederick Davidson and Nadia May] Horace Rumpole, the comic, courageous, and corpulent ''great defender of muddled and sinful humanity,'' is joined by a winning cast of villains and victims in this collection of six tales in which wry humor and sparkling wit deftly send up the British legal system. In Rumpole and the Angel of Death, our hero achieves new, resounding triumphs over the forces of prejudice and mean-mindedness.
