The Essential Borden Books on
CD-ROM
Includes the following important works on one disk:
The Fall River Tragedy - 1893
Facsimile transcription of Edwin H. Porter's landmark book, first published in
1893. It was the first major work in the field of Borden studies. Includes
all photographs from the original text. The Trial of Lizzie Borden - 1937
By Edmund Pearson, the most prolific writer on the Borden case. This is another
important work that includes great quantities of trial testimony, not generally
found elsewhere, but criticized for his one-sided approach which favored Lizzie
as the killer. Includes
all photographs from the original text. The Borden Murder Mystery - 1946
By Arthur Sherman Phillips. This book is an abstract from The Phillips History
of Fall River (Fall River, MA: Dover Press, 1944-6, 3 vols.). Phillips was
a junior member of Lizzie Borden's defense team who always maintained a belief
in her innocence. The Mystery Unveiled - 1893
By Todd Lunday. The full titled is The Mystery Unveiled: The Truth about
the Borden Tragedy: Fresh Light That Must Be Convincing to All Readers.
A 56-page pamphlet, published immediately after the trial, in which
the writer concludes that, with Lizzie Borden acquitted and no other
suspect substituted, nobody committed the murders. "Todd Lunday" is
the nom de plume for a writer whose actual identity is still unknown.
