Sam J. Ervin 
Humor of a Country Lawyer 

Originally published in 1984, Senator Ervin’s delightful collection of stories and anecdotes winds its way from his native Morganton through Chapel Hill and Harvard, the military, the North Carolina Supreme Court, the United States Senate, and Watergate. It represents a lifetime of wit and wisdom–told in the late Senator Ervin’s inimitable style.
