ISBN:  9781641603386 (hc) Alternate title:  Nathaniel Hawthorne, Daniel Webster, and the 1830 murder of a Salem slave trader Description:  xiii, 238 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "The 1830 murder of wealthy slaver Joseph White outraged all of Salem, Massachusetts. Soon the crime drew national attention when it was discovered that two of the conspirators came from Salem’s influential Crowninshield family: a clan of millionaire shipowners, cabinet secretaries, and congressmen. A prosecution team led by famed Massachusetts senator Daniel Webster made the case even more newsworthy. Meanwhile, young Salem native Nathaniel Hawthorne -- who knew several of the accused -- observed and wrote. Here, using source materials not available previously, Edward J. Renehan Jr. provides a riveting narrative of the cold-blooded murder, intense investigations, scandal-strewn trials, and grim executions that dominated headlines nearly two-hundred years ago."--Publisher.
