The Child in the Electric Chair: The Execution of George Junius Stinney Jr. and the Making of a Tragedy in the American South
Eli Faber
How was it possible, even in Jim Crow South Carolina, for a child to be convicted, sentenced to death, and executed based on circumstantial evidence in a trial that lasted only a few hours? Through extensive archival research and interviews, Eli Faber pieces together the chain of events that led a tragic injustice.
