The trial of Steinie Morrison wasin its daya cause celebreand has been the subject of controversy ever since.Court room proceedings were enlivened by the notable eccentricity of counsel - there was drama within drama - and in his summing-up Mr Justice Darling showed his belief that there was insufficient evidence for conviction.But the jury found Morrison guilty - guilty of the gruesome murder of Leon Beron on Clapham Commonin the earliest hours of New Year's Day1911 - and but for the clemency of Winston Churchillthen Home Secretaryhe would have been hanged. Morrisonhoweverreduced his sentence of life imprisonment by starving himself to death some ten years later.The case itself was of absorbing interestthe trial alternated between dramatic intensity and wild farceand throughout England there was a dark suspicion that the murder of Leon Beron was in some way connected with two violent crimes that had deeply alarmed the public mind: the Houndsditch Murders before Christmasthe Siege of Sidney Street in January.Were foreign anarchists on the rampage So it was fearedand anti-foreignanti-semitic feeling swept London. Against that background Eric Linklater retells the whole storymakes clear his own belief that Morrison was not the murderer.He fills a crowded canvas with vivid detail and a cast of characters ranging from an invisible Peter the Painter to the celebrated Detective Inspector Wensleyfrom the East End harlots to Mr Justice Darling in all his urbanity.

Little, William T.
The Tom Thomson Mystery
239 pages. "In 1956, nearly forty years after the death of Canadian artist, Tom Thomson, William T. Little and three companions set themselves to a macabre task. Ever since July 16, 1917, when the artist's badly decomposing body was found floating in the waters of Canoe Lake, controversey and conjecture hovered over the matter of how Tom Thomson really met his death. It was as a result of this prolonged uncertainty that the four men began digging in the little cemetery in Algonquin Park where Thomson was supposedly buried... On the one hand William Little has been able to give us a fuller understanding of both Thomson's personality and his instincts as a painter. On the other, he has amassed considerable evidence that suggests a murder, a suspect, and a motive." - from back cover. Gift greetings inside front cover and at foot of back flyleaf. Covers carefully preserved in glossy clear adhesive laminate. Tight and square with moderate wear. Sound copy. Book
