Review Quotes:

A Hanging in Detroit is a monument of scholarship, historical detective work, and good writing which presents this historic event in the context of its time. Consequently, we are given to see more clearly what the people of the time, and the actors involved, probably thought about it.

--Eugene Wanger "Michigan attorney"
