John Lennon vs. the U.S.A. : the inside story of the most bitterly contested and influential deportation case in United States history

Wildes, Leon (author.). Wildes, Michael, (author of foreword.).

Summary: New York immigration attorney Leon Wildes tells the story of this landmark case -- John Lennon vs. The USA -- that set up a battle of wills between John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and President Richard Nixon. Although Wildes did not even know who John Lennon and Yoko Ono were when he was originally retained by them, he developed a close relationship with them both during the eventual five-year period while he represented them and thereafter.
