"The Leo Frank Case was the first comprehensive account of not only Phagans murder and Franks trial and lynching but also the sensational newspaper coverage, popular hysteria, and legal demagoguery that surrounded these events. Forty years after the book first appeared, and more than ninety years after the deaths of Phagan and Frank, it remains a gripping account of injustice. In his preface to the revised edition, Leonard Dinnerstein discusses the ongoing cultural impact of the Frank affair."--publisher Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
