Frontispiece is a b/w photo of Lizzie Borden and there are four b/w photos in the text. Includes a 3-page biography of Arthur S. Phillips, abstracted from Fascicle I of THE PHILLLIPS HISTORY OF FALL RIVER. "Phillilps, a member of Lizzie Borden's team of defense lawyers, still believed Lizzie to be innocent almost fifty years after the crime when all active participants in the trial were dead. This account of the Borden murders and the trial of Lizzie Borden was written by Phillips before he died in 1941. Phillips' narrative has been missed and ignored by other more recent writers on the subject and this account is the first known separate publication of Phillips' work. His account postdates Edmund Pearson, the 'unchallenged' final authority on the subject before his death in 1937.
