Autor

Kevin Purcell became an Anglophile while spending a college semester in England in 1972. After law school and a few years in private practice, Mr. Purcell was, for three decades, a bankruptcy lawyer for the United States Department of Justice. During this time, he wrote and presented many papers to court. As an acknowledgement of his expertise, Mr. Purcell was called as a witness in three criminal trials, resulting in eight convictions. Having found Bella's Appeal Record in a used bookstore, Mr. Purcell let his fascination with Bella's story guide him in authoring this book. He found her courage striking. Bella seems far more modern than her contemporaries. Her voice has value for our times. She found herself in a situation where, if the other side had prevailed, she'd be left destitute with a child to support, while her ex-husband enjoyed her large inheritance. Mr. Purcell lives in upstate New York.
