Once one of the most sought-after young women in Virginia society, she was denounced as a ruined Jezebel, and the great orator Patrick Henry and future Supreme Court justice John Marshall were retained to defend her in a sensational trial. This gripping account of murder, infanticide, prostitution charges, moral decline, and heroism that played out in the intimate lives of the nation's Founding Fathers is as riveting and revealing as any current scandal -- in or out of Washington.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlan Pell Crawford\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eThunder on the Right: The \"New Right\" and the Politics of Resentment, \u003c\/i\u003e which \u003ci\u003eThe New Republic\u003c\/i\u003e called \"a significant work of political and intellectual history.\" He lives in Richmond, Virginia, with his wife, Sally Curran, and their two sons, Ned and Tim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 336\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.82 x 8.42 x 5.48 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 12, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47468081676541,"sku":"9780743264679","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/c0xCbEt5YmFIVG1NNWw2YnpBYnNNUT09.webp?v=1777285301","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/unwise-passions-a-true-story-of-a-remarkable-woman-and-the-first-great-scandal-of-eighteenth-century-america-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
