Suthers’ wisdom coming soon to a district attorney near you
Attorney General John Suthers’ words of wisdom contained in his recent book, “No Higher Calling, No Greater Responsibility: A Prosecutor Makes his Case,” will soon land in the hands and on the desks of every prosecutor in Colorado.
Suthers told Political Notebook that the law firm of Holland & Hart has purchased a copy of the book for every prosecutor in Colorado.
“While I think it is primarily geared for lay people, it has found a pretty good market in prosecutors,” Suthers said. “Holland & Hart, the big regional law firm, has purchased a copy for every municipal, state and federal prosecutor in Colorado.”
Suthers said the law firm’s idea means roughly 1,300 copies of his book will be on the desk of every prosecutor in the state, “including everyone in the Grand Junction DA’s office.”
As a side note, Suthers, who teaches at the University of Denver College of Law, said his plan of assigning the book as required reading for his class will only increase book sales by about 40 a semester.

Given the cost of textbooks, why doesn’t Suthers get Holland & Hart to donate copies to his students, as well?
