"The Chicago Conspiracy Trial is an electrifying account of the months-long trial that commanded the attention of a divided nation. John Schultz, on assignment for The Evergreen Review, witnessed the whole trial of the Chicago Seven, from the jury selection to the aftermath of the verdict. In his vivid account, Schultz exposes the raw emotions, surreal testimony, and judicial prejudice that came to define one of the most significant legal events in American history. In October 2020, Aaron Sorkin's film, The Trial of the Chicago Seven, will bring this iconic trial to the screen"-- Chicago Seven Trial, Chicago, Ill., 1969-1970. lcc BK 0 0 0 0 PNLIB PNLIB GEN 2021-06-17 KF224.C47 S38 2020 PNLIB21060656 2021-06-17 2021-06-17 BK 842 842
