Summary

The Jennings journals are an integration of two very different journals kept by Lizzie Borden's lawyer, Andrew Jackson Jennings. The first one is composed of handwritten entries in a nearly alphabetical fashion. The entries consist of notes, newspaper clipping notations, and interviews conducted with the individuals included. The second journal is a collection of newspaper clippings from August 4 to August 11, 1892, all, of course, relating to the Borden murder case. The Jennings Journals is not a narrative retelling of the case but, rather a transcription of the documents in their original form, contributing unprecedented primary source material about the manner in which the defense team built their case., Publisher
