This study of the 1927–1928 murder trial and appeal of John Winters is an intriguing look at one of the most celebrated cases in Vermont judicial history-the time Clarence Darrow, America's greatest advocate, appeared for the defendant before the Vermont Supreme Court. It reveals tensions of class, gender, and family, and gives the reader a glimpse of justice in the 1920s. Winters' Time combines legal history, true crime, a cast of Vermont characters, and America's famous "attorney for the damned."
