Produktbeschreibung
In 1932 Ira Gurley was sitting on the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission. Ira was the father of future Cosmopolitan Magazine Editor in Chief Helen Gurley Brown. He had served four terms in the Arkansas House of Representatives, elected by his peers in Carroll County. He had anounced his intentions to run for Secretary of State, and looked to be a strong candidate for the position. While leaving a meeting in the Arkansas State Capital building, an employee of the current Secretary of State penned and crushed Ira in the doorway of an elevator, killing him. The Secretary of State, Ed McDonald, sent the elevator operator home and handled the investigation himself. No law enforcement agency was called. This book tries to reconstruct the day, events, and political atmosphere of the times. The reader will see what happened, and what should have happened, and then determine for themselves if this was a horrible accident, or was there a cover-up inside the State Capital.
