This audiobook is a continuation of The Oberlin-Wellington Rescue. Circumventing the Ohio statues to punish participants in a slave rescue mission is the theme of this astonishing narration. Based on the actual trial from the Oberlin Wellington Rescue, courtroom corruption will be brought to light. Confirmed historical documentation characterized in this audiobook contradicts a major theory surrounding ," The Oberlin Wellington Rescue" by most historians. A more in depth legal look takes place on the prosecution of Simeon Bushnell, an alleged participant in the rescue mission testimonies, and the verdict. Like the audiobook, "The Oberlin Wellington Rescue", the narrator employs multiple character voices to give the listener a sense of what it was like to be at the trial in Cleveland, Ohio in the year 1859. History enthusiast of the Oberlin Wellington Rescue will find this extraordinary event packed with legal insight. And finally, institutionalized racism, and a blatant disregard for the divine law by the judicial system in 19th century Cleveland, Ohio is uncovered.
