Inhoud:

In 1925 Leonard Rhinelander, the youngest son of a wealthy New York society family, sued to end his marriage to Alice Jones, a former domestic servant and the daughter of a 'colored' cabman. This title explains legal history, a day-by-day narrative of the trial itself, and analyses of the trial's place in the culture of the 1920s North.
