Author Talk: Sacco and Vanzetti: The Men, The Murders, and The Judgment of Mankind by Bruce Watson

Come to the Newton Free Library for an author talk with Bruce Watson for a fascinating trip back in time to the historic event, based on his 2007 book, Sacco and Vanzetti: The Men, The Murders, and The Judgment of Mankind. 

Watson's book addresses when, in 1927, when the entire world seemed to take notice as Sacco and Vanzetti,  who were on death row in a Massachusetts prison, were to be executed.  But the question remained, were they guilty or innocent?  The talk will bring the famous case to life.

A book signing will follow with books provided by New England Mobile Book Fair.
