A Civil Action by Jonathan Harr is a nonfiction legal narrative published in 1995 that reconstructs the real Woburn, Massachusetts toxic tort case known as Anderson v. Cryovac. The book follows a group of families who believe contaminated water caused a cluster of childhood leukemia cases, and it tracks their effort to hold major corporations accountable. At the center is attorney Jan Schlichtmann, whose investigation, litigation strategy, and eventual financial collapse give the book its dramatic structure. Harr writes with the pacing of courtroom drama while still staying rooted in documented events, making the book accessible to readers who may not normally read legal nonfiction. Its purpose is not only to recount a famous case, but also to examine how science, law, money, and power interact when ordinary plaintiffs challenge well-resourced defendants in a system that often demands certainty where certainty is hard to prove.
