About
"The Hanging of Susanna Cox is a compelling murder mystery of a young Pennsylvania German woman who may be more a victim of nineteenth-century societal values and limitations than the perpetrator of an actual crime. The trial and conviction come across as a travesty of justice, and it is for that reason that the ballad of Susanna Cox continues today. The saga presented here is a masterful blend of who-done-it drama and cultural analysis."---David L. Valuska Author of Damn Dutch: Pennsylvania Germans at Gettysburg
