FROM THE COVER:
They roared at each other like lions, American's two most famous orators. Day after day, in the torrid heat of a packed court they battled with weighty arguments, tremendous speeches. Such a drama America had not seen before. Spectators fainted; cynical reporters tok sides and started fist-fights; the judge, jury, and defendant were forgotten as two of the greatest orators the world has ever seen raged, thundered, and strove to literally destroy each other. The audience stood aghast as one was mortally stricken in the moment of his defeat. Inherit the Wind: The greatest courtroom drama of the century!
