It details the famous Scopes "Money trial" in which a Tennessee science teacher was brought to trial essentially for teaching evolution and using a textbook which actually has evolution in it. The text he used was a required book for the science curriculum of Tennessee: George William Hunter, "A Civic Biology, presented in problems" which is also included in this offering. The case was argued by two titans of the U.S. Legal system, Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan their story is related in Leslie Allen's "Bryan and Darrow at Dayton" (1925), which is also included as the third part of this three-part offer.

[++] " 'A Civic Biology: Presented in Problems' (usually referred to as just Civic Biology) was a biology textbook written by George William Hunter, published in 1914. It is the book which the state of Tennessee required high school teachers to use in 1925 and is best known for its section about evolution that was ruled by a local court to be in violation of the state Butler Act. It was for teaching from this textbook that John T. Scopes was brought to trial in Dayton, Tennessee in the Scopes "Monkey" Trial. The views espoused in the book about evolution, race, and eugenics were common to American Progressives (especially in the work of Charles Benedict Davenport, one of the most prominent American biologists of the early 20th century, whom Hunter cites in the book)."--Wikipedia [++] The Hunter "Civic Biology" and the Allen "Bryan and Darrow" books are housed in a new and beautiful custom-made calf-backed solander case--a lovely effort.
