An account of one of the sensational trials of the early 1850s. Wikoff or as he called himself Chevalier Wikoff was an American impresario occasional European correspondent for the New York Herald and possibly a spy for Lord Palmerston. He was engaged to Jane Catherine Gamble an English woman. Gamble changed her mind shortly before the wedding and fled to Genoa. Wikoff tracked her down and apparently tricked her into coming along with him to his apartment. Shortly afterwards Gamble filed a complaint of kidnapping that landed Wikoff in an Italian jail for 15 months. He was found guilty in an Italian court and forced to return her letters and "extorted promise of marriage." Ever enterprising Wikoff responded to the negative publicity with a memoir entitled My Courtship and Its Consequences 1855 which became a best-seller. Copies of The Trial of Wikoff are scarce.
