The Depression-era murder trial of George Crawford in Northern Virginia helped end the exclusion of African Americans from juries. Nearly forgotten today, the murders, ensuing manhunt, extradition battle and sensational trial enthralled the nation.

This book puts the Crawford murder trial in its fullest context, side by side with relevant events of the time.
