Sacco and Vanzetti: References & Edit History
More Articles On This Topic
Additional Reading
Katherine Anne Porter, The Never-Ending Wrong (1977), was written by an eyewitness. Roberta Strauss Feuerlicht, Justice Crucified (1977), examines the case in the context of the immigrant experience. Francis Russell, Sacco & Vanzetti (1986), concludes that Sacco, at least, was guilty. William Young and David E. Kaiser, Postmortem: New Evidence in the Case of Sacco and Vanzetti (1985), reasserts their innocence. Paul Avrich, Sacco and Vanzetti: The Anarchist Background (1991), has become a standard reference. Among more recent examinations of the case are Bruce Watson, Sacco and Vanzetti: The Men, the Murders, and the Judgement of Mankind (2007); and Richard Newby, Kill Now, Talk Forever: Debating Sacco and Vanzetti (2008), which argues that evidence on Vanzetti’s revolver appears to inculpate him.
