Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the trials of Joseph Jenkins Knapp, Jr., and George Crowninshield, who were accused of murdering Captain White of Salem, Massachusetts, in 1830. The author provides extensive details of the trials, including testimonies from witnesses, and a full account of the prisoners' confessions. The author situates the murders within the broader context of the sensationalist crime reporting of the era, and discusses the ways in which the public's fascination with the case shaped the proceedings. The book also explores the social and cultural tensions of the time, including the anti-immigrant sentiment that fueled suspicion against Crowninshield, a naturalized citizen. Ultimately, the book argues that the trials of Knapp and Crowninshield were a microcosm of the nation's growing pains as it struggled to define itself in the wake of the Revolution. The author's insights into the legal and social history of the period make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history or true crime.
