About this book
A former vice-president faces a treason charge in Richmond, Virginia, while prominent lawyers prepare to argue his case. Francis F. Beirne concentrates on Aaron Burr's trial in the spring and summer of 1807, with the chief justice on the bench and distinguished advocates on both sides. His account aims to make the proceedings accessible to general readers, placing the courtroom's public drama alongside the legal questions that brought these figures together.
Published in 1959, the book also traces the family pressures surrounding the accused. Alston struggles to defend his own reputation while maintaining loyalty to his father-in-law and to Theodosia, Burr's daughter. The couple travel from Charleston to Richmond, where Theodosia makes friends in local society and wins support for her father's cause. Readers interested in the early republic can follow how public accusations affected private relationships, and how the social life of Richmond became part of the atmosphere surrounding the trial.
