John Brown’s Trial
Brian McGinty
Supported by a “provisional army” of 21 men, Brown hoped to rouse the slaves in Virginia to rebellion. But he was quickly captured and, after a short but stormy trial, hanged on December 2, 1859. McGinty provides the first comprehensive account of the trial, which raised important questions about jurisdiction, judicial fairness, and treason.
