America’s Greatest Trials

with Stonehill College Professor Gary Hylander, Ph.D

In an America caught up in the hysteria of the Second Red Scare, McCarthyism and International Communism, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg went to trial for espionage in 1953. More than fifty years later, their trial remains the subject of great emotional debate and acrimony. Hear the riveting aspects of the case as Professor Hylander, recently named one of the top 25 teachers in the country, leads this fantastic class lecture. In the fall his lecture series will continue with an investigation of the Lindberg kidnapping and the Scopes Trial.
