Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. xi+211pp. Illus. in text. Dr. Wertham had many years experience with disturbed and delinquent youngsters. His book exposes the sobering facts behind one of America's most shocking murders - the story of Frank Santana, the so-called 'hoodlum' who killed so-called 'model-boy' Billy Blankenship. Santana, a fatherless boy from Puerto Rico, joined a stick-ball group which evolved into a gang for self-protection. Prejudice in the neighbourhood was strong. What was not generally known, however, was that the victim was also a member of a gang who made a practice of beating up Puerto Ricans. The author, a noted psychiatrist who was asked to examine Santana by the defence, describes the events, the background and much data not heard in the court. Includes Index. Book.
