HIT: Trials of the Century

[Michele Missner <missnerm@ATHENET.NET>]

Thank you to everyone who have suggesions for sites and books.  Michele

I have a book: Sensational Trials of the 20th Century (forget author). It
has a chapter devoted to each chosen trial and includes The Scopes Trial,
The Lindberg Baby trial, OJ, and more. HTH.
I don't have a source for ten in the 20th century, but the Washington
Post lists 10 of all time, 7 of which are in the 20th century. This list
is at::

I have a book called Great World Trials that lists court cases by the
century.  If you would like I could compile a list of the cases, charges,
and verdicts and send it to you.
I bought the book through Regent Book Co.
