The Borden Murders: Lizzie Borden & the Trial of the Century by Sarah Miller
5.0
"Lizzie Borden took an axe,
Gave her mother forty whacks.
When she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.
Today, everything most people know of Lizzie Andrew Borden is contained in those four singsong lines of doggerel. And nearly everything in those four lines is wrong."
It hadn't occurred to me until I started this book that I really knew nothing about the story of Lizzie Borden. I liked the writing style and thought it was balanced. I appreciated the information pulled out in sidebar boxes and the photographs.
