Find out what profs at your future school will be using.  Read that.

If you truly can't find out which book they use, I liked this one: http://www.amazon.com/Legal-Writing-Process-Analysis-Organization/dp/0735556563/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234490725&sr=8-1

Agreed.  No significant advantage to doing any law-related work over the summer, IMO.

That said, the book we use in OUR legal writing class is Legal Writing and Analysis by Linda H. Edwards.

It's all a myth, a legend, a thing of fable.
