Love on trial: an American scandal in black and white
Lewis, Earl, Ardizzone, Heidi"Too important to be ignored…A fascinating look at America's obsession with race, pride, and privilege." ―Essence
A modern Cinderella must defend her fairy-tale marriage in a scandal that rocked jazz-age America. When Alice Jones, a former domestic, married Leonard Rhinelander in 1924, she became the first black woman to be listed in the Social Register as a member of one of New York's wealthiest families. Once news of the marriage became public, a scandal of race, class, and sex gripped the nation―and forced the couple into an annulment trial.
