The 1899 lynching of Sam Hose in Newnan, Georgia, was one of the most gruesome events in US history. Hose was accused of killing Alfred Cranford, a white farmer, and raping his wife. The author, troubled by the fact that this horrific chain of events has been largely shut out of public memory, offers an in-depth examination of the lynching.
