September 23rd was the 150th anniversary of one of the most famous and enduring closing arguments in history: George Vest’s “A Tribute to a Dog” delivered in a Missouri courtroom.  It is a masterpiece of advocacy that has been enjoyed by lawyers and dog lovers for years.

I had the fun of commemorating Vest’s milestone anniversary by publishing an Op-ed about it in The Wall Street Journal.
