Hardcover / Hardback. Etat : Good. No Jacket. Hardback. Foreword by Justice William O. Douglas. Intro' by Arthur Weinberg. These pages contain for the most part addresses which Clarence Darrow delivered to juries in criminal cases. There are in addition speeches on controversial people and subjects. Throughout each of them runs a common thread - his antagonism toward bigotry, prejudice, ignorance, and hate. Some say that Darrow in his later years became bitter and conservative. But in his prime he certainly was a fearless liberal, representing many lost causes. Darrow represented both the poor and the rich. He was always on the side of the underdog fighting for equal protection, due process, and a fair trial. Contents include : Leopold and Loeb, Chicago, 1924; The Massie Case, Honolulu, 1932; The Communist Trial, Chicago, 1920; The Scopes Evolution Case, Dayton, Tennessee, 1925; The Sweet Case, Detroit, 1926; The Kidd Case, Oshkosh, Wisconsin, 1898; Anthracite Miners, Scranton and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1903; Steve Adams, Wallace, Idaho, 1907; Haywood, Moyer and Pettibone, Boise, Idaho, 1907; Darrow in his Own Defense, Los Angeles, 1912; + much more.
