Sorry Paerlhar, I'm not here to offer expert opinion. I did read Sacco and Vanzetti's letters in high school, and remember that it was an interesting book (included an introduction too) - wait, I'll look it up - here's
the Amazon link. Way I remember it, the trial was most dubious, with the judge telling them that just the fact that they were anarchists alone was reason enough for him to condemn them. But high school is a long time ago, and I never really read up about it since. I'd be interested in an "expert view" too though, so with this post I'm bookmarking the thread. Welcome to A2K btw.
Oh, a
search on Amazon on Sacco Vanzetti gets you 138 books - no lack of material, in any case! :-)
