The Sewing Girl's Tale by John Sweet

 

Loved this book! A fascinating blend of facts and the fictionalized story of Lanah Sawyer and her pursuit of justice following a violent by the rake and womanizer Harry Bedlow. The author provides a deep dive into the life and times of Lanah and Harry and an in-depth look at the trials that followed their encounter. The book explores the changing customs and norms of post war America and the role of Lanah's suit against a powerful family. Well worth reading. I enjoyed every minute of it.
