520 $a"Patrick Campbell embarks on a quest to solve a 100-year old family mystery and uncovers a frightening tale of a perverted legal system that victimized the Irish in the coal-mining areas of Pennsylvania in the 1870s."
520 $aOn June 21, 1877, ten Irish-Americans were executed in the mining area of Pennsylvania. All were accused of being members of a terrorist group called the Molly Maguires, and all were convicted of planning and carrying out the murder of a number of mining officials. Ten more Irish-Americans were executed in the next 18 months on the same charges. The Molly Maguire executions generated a great deal of controversy in Pennsylvania from the 1870s onward, with Irish-Americans claiming the Mollies were framed by the mine owners, while other ethnic groups believe that they were guilty as charged and deserved the punishment they received. This book is a look into the execution of one individual, Alexander Campbell, to see if he was guilty or innocent. -- Publisher description
