The 1925 trial of John Scopes in tiny Dayton, Tennessee remains a defining moment in American history. This "trial of the century"—a "media event" before the term was even coined—addressed issues that continue to affect our society today, such as school curriculum control, the ongoing tensions between science and faith in public schools and the ramifications of teaching evolution and human origins.
This book is the first encyclopedic treatment of the Scopes Trial. The text draws on media reports, family interviews and Scopes' personal correspondence, providing new information and perspectives. Throughout the book, there are previously unseen photos and information about Scopes and his relatives, as well as insights about the trial's locations and issues, all organized in a concise, objective and easily accessible format.
