A RARE PAMPHLET GOTTEN UP BY A LOCAL REPORTER FROM THE HUNTSVILLE TIMES
pur-
porting to tell the “inside” story of this early Scottsboro trial that put the small Southern town on the
map. The Scottsboro Boys and their various trials and tribulations occupied the news for quite some

Angelo Herndon, the beginning of the modern civil rights struggle. OCLC locates only five copies.
