| Summary | "Tragedy in Dedham: The Story of the Sacco-Vanzetti Case" by Francis Russell is a historical account written in the early 1960s. The book delves into the infamous trial of Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, examining the events leading to their arrest, the trial proceedings, and the social and political turmoil surrounding their case. This account not only focuses on the legal aspects but also touches upon the broader societal implications and divides that the trial created within American society. The opening of the work introduces the context of the Sacco-Vanzetti case, illustrating how it escalated from a murder trial to a significant symbol of injustice and social conflict in America. Russell reflects on his memories and the public sentiments during the trial, highlighting how perceptions varied based on social class and politics. He presents conflicting perspectives on the guilt or innocence of Sacco and Vanzetti, contrasting the views of different community members, including law enforcement and the educated elite, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the case's impact and the enduring questions around justice and societal values that it raises.
