This book was an interesting look at the Scopes Monkey Trial. It shows how the small town of Dayton, Tennessee, coped with this so-called crime of teaching/mentioning evolution in the classroom. It also deals with a husband and wife who inevitably get caught up in this trial -he, because he is a lawyer, and she, because she is talked into taking photographs of the trial.
The book starts out quite depressing, with a lot of tragedy in Annabel's life, and at times, it gets even worse than it was at the beginning.
It was an interesting look at how many people looked at education vs. religion at the time.
It was a little too religious for me, but it was a fascinating book nonetheless.
