[1st edition, 1st printing] ; 381 pp. ; illustrated ; 22 cm. ; ISBN: 0965602702; 9780965602709 LCCN: 96-95336 ; LC: HV6533.G4; Dewey: 364.15/23/09758552 ; OCLC: 37181499 ; SIGNED by author Deloach on front ep ; pictorial stiff paper wrappers ; "Before sunrise on August 6, 1887, a respected gentleman farmer, Captain Richard F. Wollfolk, was savagely murdered along with his wife, their six children, and his wife's 84-year old great aunt. At day break, local authorities, crippled by mass hysteria, made an arrest. The state of Georgia abruptly awakened itself from its simmering post-Civil War stupor and amid rampant yellow journalism, unfounded rumors, prejudice, lies, and blatant confessions, struggled to prove the one survivor of that tragic night, Thomas G. Woolfolk, the Captain's eldest son, to be the lone axe murderer."-- cover ; slight knock, else G
