A gripping and comprehensive history of the iconic attorney Clarence
Darrow and the famous Scopes Monkey Trial, from the #1 New York
Times bestselling author of The Russia Hoax and the "superb" (Sean
Hannity) Witch Hunt.
Nearly a century ago, famed liberal attorney Clarence Darrow defended
schoolteacher John Scopes in a blockbuster legal proceeding that brought
the attention of the entire country to the small town of Dayton,
Tennessee. Darrow's seminal defense of freedom of speech helped form the
legal bedrock on which our civil liberties depend today. Expertly
researched, eye-opening, and stirring, The Trial of the Century calls
upon our past to unite Americans in the defense of the free exchange of
ideas, especially in this divided time.
