Florence Kelley and the Children
"This book documents and explores an important time in US history, and does so with a depth and intelligence that make it irresistibly compelling." -Scott Turow, author, Presumed Innocent A new book by a Northwestern University School of Law scholar aims to fill in the gaps in all that has been written about Florence Kelley-focusing particularly on the somewhat neglected decade the late 19th-century advocate for women and children spent in Chicago.

Crimes Of The Century
In compelling narrative, the authors probe the sensational cases of Nathan F. Leopold, Jr., and Richard A. Loeb, the Scottsboro "boys," Bruno Richard Hauptmann, Alger Hiss, and O.J.

These celebrated trials reveal issues of overzealous prosecution, sloppy police work, judicial bias, race, class, and ethnic struggles, and the role of wealth in securing a competent defense. They also show how the temper of the times and frenzied media coverage heightened the intensity of drama in the cases.
