About This Item
E-303. Very Good. Hardcover. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by The Viking Press, New York. 1928. Xi, 414 pgs. Signed and inscribed by Marion Frankfurter on the FFEP. First Edition/First Printing. Bound in black title with title label present to the spine. Boards have light wear present to the extremities of the boards. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Electrocuted in 1927 for the murder of two guards in Massachusetts, the Italian- American anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti defied the verdict against them, maintaining their innocence to the end. Whether they were guilty continues to be the subject of debate today. First published in 1928, Sacco and Vanzetti's letters represent one of the great personal documents of the twentieth century: a volume of primary source material as famous for the splendor of its impassioned prose as for the brilliant light it sheds on the characters of the two dedicated anarchists who became the focus of worldwide attention. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall .
