Lizzie Borden [1860-1927] was tried and acquitted for the 1892 axe
murders of her father and stepmother in Fall River, Massachusetts.
Speculation continues today about the sensational case that produced a
famous nursery rhyme. Although she was acquitted, no one else was ever
charged with the murders, and Borden lived out her life in Fall River.

Compiled immediately after Borden’s sensational trial, the author aims
to provide a connected story of the whole case, commencing with the
day of the tragedy and ending with the day that Miss Borden was set
free. He touches on such topics as the discovery of the murders, the
adjournment of the preliminary hearing and some the many theories that
were advanced before any arrests were made. The book is handsomely
illustrated with photos and line illustrations of the deceased, the
accused, the jury and others.
