About This Item
New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons [0-399-11906-X] 1980. (Hardcover) 539pp. Very good in very good dust jacket. Notes, index. A remainder mark on the bottom edge and a previous owner's name in pencil inside. "Lizzie Borden and Charles Manson are legendary American criminals, but they are not the important ones. In looking at crime in America, the most interesting question is not 'Whodunit?' but 'Who defines it?' - who decides what is legal and what is not".
