‎Paris Guilbert, Roux 1836 4 vol. relié 4 vol. in-8, demi-veau glacé, dos lisses ornés de filets dorés et à froid, tranches marbrées, XIII + (3) + 338 + (2) pp., (4) + 460 pp., (4)+ 382 et (4) + 422 pp. Edition originale bien complète des 4 planches lithographiées (ferrement des forçats et visages mortuaires de criminels célèbres), des 4 fac-similés dépliants et des 2 plans dépliants des prisons de Lausanne et de Genève. Benjamin Appert (1797-1873), cousin de Nicolas Appert, est une figure atypique de la philanthropie libérale du XIXe siècle. Proche de Stendhal, qui le mit en scène parmi la bonne société de Verrières dans Le Rouge et le noir, il se consacre d'abord à l'instruction des déshérités avant de s'intéresser au sort des prisonniers. Chargé de l'amélioration de l'organisation des prisons, puis secrétaire de la reine Marie-Amélie, il est disgrâcié suite à la parution de ces quatre volumes très critiques sur la politique pénitentiaire de l'orléanisme (cf "Le philanthrope Benjamin Appert..." de Jacques-Guy Petit, 1994). Ex-libris : baron Laurent Duval de Fraville (avec ses initiales dorées en pied des dos). Agréable reliure légèrement patinée, quelques rousseurs marginales sans gravité. Très bonne condition.‎

Light Creasing on Front Rear Covers Spine; Front Rear Covers Lightly Chipped; Spine Slightly Cocked; Edges Lightly Soiled; Moderate Yellowing Due to Age. THE STORY THAT SHOCKED THE NATION! UPDATED. The riveting account of the The Pas murder cover-up and inquiry by Lisa Priest. COVER DESIGN BY: Tad Aronowicz. MOVIE/RADIO/TV TIE-IN: This book was the basis for the 1991 Made-for-Television film of the same name. CONTENTS: part one Betty; part two Life after Murder; part three Justice on Trial; part four Inquiry; Main Characters; Acknowledgements. SYNOPSIS: Disguised by a veil of racism apathy and conspiracy the brutal slaying of Helen Betty Osborne went unsolved for nearly 16 years. The murder known as the The Pas Case after the Manitoba town in which it occurred shocked the nation and prompted the creation of a two-man inquiry to investigate its circumstances. In this taut chilling narrative the awful truth behind the headline-making case comes to light. Reporter Lisa Priest who covered the story for the Winnipeg Free Press traces the case from the events of November 1971 through to the conviction of Dwayne Johnston in 1987 to the secrets revealed by the public inquiry. Her account includes exclusive conversations with the convicted man the victim's family and with the townspeople who for so long refused to talk. Priest herself became part of the story when she was asked to appear before the nationally televised inquiry. Complete with photographs and new material Conspiracy of Silence is the most thorough and convincing account of this terrifying tale. Lisa Priest was born in Windsor Ontario and received her Honour Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication Studies from the University of Windsor in 1987. She has worked as a reporter at the Windsor Star the Ottawa Citizen and the Winnipeg Free Press. Conspiracy of Silence her first book is the outgrowth of a story that she covered for the Free Press.
