More about the book

The book delves into the chilling case of Pearl Bryan, a young woman discovered decapitated and pregnant in 1896, sparking national outrage. It explores the involvement of dental student Scott Jackson and his roommate Alonzo M. Walling, who was implicated in the murder. The gruesome nature of the crime not only captivated the public but also inspired folk songs in subsequent decades. The narrative includes sections on the murder's history, the discovery of Bryan's remains, and the trial of Jackson, all presented in a newly republished edition with an introductory poem by Vernon Dalhart.
