BOOK PLUG: Old pal William Ried has a new novel out called Backstory, about a successful professor at an elite Ivy League university who lives in the glowing embrace of the “right kind of people.” Lo and behold, he ends up in a race to re-write his life’s history before an ugly truth is exposed. Once again, good fiction mimics real life.

Ried is an interesting guy, who spent most of his life as a premier intellectual property lawyer, and we worked together at both Willkie Farr and at Bloomberg. Proving that he is, as I’ve always suspected, far smarter than I am, he quit the law racket to do something useful with his time.

Remember to purchase through Amazon on Instapundit so Professor Glenn can continue to live in the sumptuous lifestyle that only Knoxville can provide.
