I want to read a book on the Leo Frank/Mary Phagan case and am curious if anyone has any recommendations?

Check out AND THE DEAD SHALL RISE by Steve Oney. It is lenghty(over 600 pages) but gives amazing detail of the investigation, trial and aftermath. There are photos of both Leo Frank and Mary Phagan as well as others involved.

Also check out American Heritage magazine. An extensive Article about Leo Frank was published. It was quite a few years ago.

Another excellent book, although published in 1956 and missing some subsequent information, is "Night Fell on Georgia" by Ernest Samuels.
