Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Whatever happened to Lizzie Borden after the trial that accused her of bludgeoning her father and stepmother with a hatchet in 1892 in Fall River, Massachusetts? It's all in here, and it doesn't stop with Lizzie. A plethora of persons were involved around her in some way. From her friends to her foes, from the doctors to the policemen, from her Manse to The Nance, at last comes the first book of its kind that tells what caused Officer Philip Harrington (who greatly disliked Lizzie) to die suddenly in 1893. What happened to neighbor and friend Dr. Bowen after the crime and trial? Why doesn't Edwin Porter, who covered the trial then wrote the first contemporary book on the murders, The Fall River Tragedy, have a gravestone - and who is buried with him? Not by him. Actually with him. From original source documents, photos of the graves, obituaries, and death certificates each on whom records could be found has their story told in details unknown until now. What were they doing before anyone much had heard of Lizzie Borden? What was their role in the case? When did they die and how? Some of the results may surprise you, whether you read this book for pleasure or research. There are no legends here, but a factual telling of the stories of these persons who are today all gone but need not be forgotten. And with this book they may be hard to forget.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Upon the insistence of a friend, Emily White becomes a journalist in the coastal city of New Bedford, away from the yawning, farming community of Westport, where she lives. At the Daily Whaler, where the salt and pepper of everyday living is spliced into the printed word, she discovers her fascination with reporting on the more serious infractions of life-murder.Unexpectedly, along with employment comes the indoctrination into a confidential society-one that deals with the heinous transgressions of abduction and the daring exploits of rescue and deliverance. To Emily, this is an adventure worth exploring. The time is 1861, and with civil war unfolding in the south, New Bedford has become a sacrarium by which southern slaves navigate salvation, away from bondage, and discover safe passage north to Canada on the rails of the Underground Railroad.Though young Emily is immersed in the typical duties of reporting everyday life, both mundane and wicked, Underground Rail obligations draw her in. Before long, she finds herself on a ship south and a secret mission of inquiry and danger. Soon, the unexpected pragmatism of subjugation opens her eyes wide. And as she defies the brutality and injustice of plantation life, and the reality of her undisclosed investigation is exposed, it becomes more likely that Emily will never see her loving Westport ever again.…
