Title: The treason trials of Aaron Burr
Description: The first book dedicated to the treason trial of Aaron Burr. He was "arrested as a threat to national security, under suspicion of fomenting insurrection against the young republic, and then held without bail for months ... Deftly linking politics to law, Hoffer's highly readable study resonates with current events and shows us why the issues debated two centuries ago still matter today."--Inside jacket.
