The trial, a media spectacle, highlighted deep divisions in American society regarding race, class, and faith. Historian Brenda Wineapple vividly chronicles the ambitions and ideologies of both men, exploring themes of individual freedom, religious intolerance, and the cultural battles that defined an era.
