Black Sox in the Courtroom
McFarland & Co Inc (Verlag)
978-0-7864-7268-0 (ISBN)
The grand jury proceedings, the criminal trial, and ensuing civil suits initiated by various of the banned players against the White Sox are then recounted in detail, accompanied by copious source citations. The book concludes with a survey of how Black Sox-related legal proceedings have been treated in scandal literature. The book does not purport to be the definitive account of the Black Sox scandal. Rather, it uniquely presents how the matter played out in court.
Retired New Jersey prosecutor, William F. Lamb lives in Meredith, New Hampshire.
