What early readers are saying about
Keel Hunt’s A Sense of Justice…

“Keel Hunt delivers another fascinating book on Southern political history with the publication of A Sense of Justice: Judge Gilbert S. Merritt and His Times. It is a must-read for lawyers, judges and anyone with an interest in politics.”
—Justice Sharon Lee, Tennessee Bar Review

“A Sense of Justice: Judge Gilbert S. Merritt and His Times isn’t just a biography of Judge Merritt. It’s a chronicle of Nashville’s most influential movers and shakers through more than five decades. [ . . . ] But the book is more than a collection of accolades and acclamation. Hunt takes time to recount Merritt’s mettle in the courtroom and beyond, whether it was his opposition to the death penalty, defense of free speech, or support for civil rights and the integration of the Nashville Bar Association.”
–G. Robert Frazier, Chapter 16

“. . . I started reading the Keel Hunt book, A Sense of Justice, and could not be diverted. [ . . . ] The book is about an independent court system; one that follows the Rule of Law; and a judicial system that acts as checks and balances on abuse of power by other branches. The biography is about Gil Merritt and his concept of equality. To quote Judge Merritt: ‘Again, that goes back to the idea of evolving standards of decency that mark the progress of a maturing society.’” 
–Judge Paul G. Summers (Ret.)
