The biography has two goals. One is to trace Garrow's (1760-1840) life in the context of his time and family, and the other is to describe how, as a criminal lawyer, he changed the relationship between the state and the individual by introducing adversary trial. The two aspects are handled, conversely, by retired London solicitor Hostettler and by Brady, who is a direct descendent of Garrow and a family storyteller. Garrow's contribution has been well known among scholars and historians of law, they say, but after his death and until recently even most lawyers were not aware they he had begun many of the practices they engage in.
