mar's review against another edition
4.0
a very thorough account, good at firmly establishing the borden murders & lizzie borden's trial within their social, cultural & historical context. the writing's somewhat dry, but the topic itself is absolutely fascinating - the murder is essentially a real-life locked room mystery, and the trial is eventful enough it straight up feels like a courtroom drama
