Book Review: Fascinating part of History
Summary: 4 Stars
The Leopold and Loeb case brought every conceivable public emotion into play. Mr. Darrow was the preeminent legal mind of the period, these young men were from good wealthy Jewish Chicago families, brought together in a hot summer trial of the century. Thrill killers thought they were smarter than the authorities, proven wrong. Caught within 24 hours by stupidity and fate.
