Prisoners At The Bar

By Francis X. Busch. "An Account of the Trials of" William Haywood, Sacco and Vanzetti, Loeb and Leopold, and Bruno Hauptmann as part of the Notable American Trials series. Busch, "a distinguished trial lawyer," "makes you 'the thirteenth juror'" in four notorious cases. This is the 1962 first PB printing, in okay shape: the spine is cracked, and as shown, the center hinge is weak, though the pages are holding steady for now. Edgewear and a couple of creases to the covers; inside, pages are clean and not dog-eared, but tanned. Some fading to the edge tint. A nice vintage pick-up, but wants gentle handling.
