Description
Anarchists Sacco & Vanzetti were accused of robbery and murder, but so many supposedly damning pieces of evidence were questionable that their guilty verdict and subsequent execution caused protests around the world. The author presents all the twists and turns, appeals and dubious evidence of the case, as well as presenting the human face of the two men who were demonized by many and regarded as martyrs by others.

Description
During the years 1918 and 1919, six people in New Orleans were killed and six more injured, in their homes, in the dead of night, by an axe-wielding intruder who got away without a trace. After more than a year, the killings stopped as suddenly as they started. No trace of the murderer was ever found. Geary presents the facts and the speculations about these attacks in the third in his series on twentieth-century murder.
