Shaplen, Robert Free Love and Heavenly Sinners : The Story of the Great Henry Ward Beecher Scandal
New York, NY, U.S.A. A Borzoi Book published by Alfred A. Knopf, Inc 1954 First Edition Hard Cover Good No Jacket B/W reproductions of cartoons from publications of the time
Blue cloth on boards. Volume has minor edgewear and faded spine. Now in protective wrap. A chronicle of the trial of the lecherous minister, and the victims of his aggressions cloaked in religion. From the Preface: "In the writing of this book I have used original source material almost exlusively. The story of the famous scandal is told in narrative style, chronologically. My chief source has been the official record of the trial, a three-volume, three-thousand-page transcript of the case in City Court, Brooklyn, enititled Theodore Tilton vs. Henry Ward Beecher. The ramifications of the Beecher-Tilton case were to fill the newspapers from coast to coast for months on end, and while its entertainment value was high, it ultimately was to cut such a wide swath through the vast area of contemporary debate over private versus public conduct, the function of the evangelical church, and the place of women in the expanding social scene, that its importance would transend the titillation it caused.
