Put on trial for the murder of a teenage boy, he was supported by wealthy cattlemen and defended by a team of expensive attorneys, and for a time it appeared he might be found not guilty. John W. Davis takes the reader through every twist and turn of the trial, the appeal, and the plea for clemency with both a lawyer's insight and an engaging style that makes the work nothing less than riveting."
