Justice Served

📖 The Scoop

"Alma Bell Wilson has long been called 'the people's judge' because of her position on issues and the way she interacted with people. Those in her presence were immediately put to ease by her grace and friendly demeanor. As the first woman on the Oklahoma Supreme Court, Alma was a role model for women of all ages. Everyone, from attorneys to parking lot attendants, called her 'Alma.' Alma proved herself a worthy sister, wife, mother, and jurist. She was an eager learner and hard worker, an eloquent sharp-witted speaker, and a faithful friend of the people she served. She set a standard of fairness and quality of living that challenges us all. This is the story of her struggle as a woman lawyer in a man's world; her rise from writing leagal briefs while changing diapers to the states highest court and an important place on Oklahoma history."--Publisher's description.
