ONE AUGUST MORNING THE TRUE STORY OF LIZZIE BORDEN BY TROY TAYLOR LIZZIE BORDEN TOOK AN AXE... OR DID SHE? Lizzie Borden is a name that has lived in infamy. As everyone knows, she's the young woman who "took an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks" and then "gave her father 41." Everyone seems to know the rhyme, but most people don't know the truth behind the grim story of one of America's most famous unsolved murders. In this new entry in the "Dead Men Do Tell Tales" series, author Troy Taylor delves into the true story of the Borden Murders, revealing what really happened on that morning in August 1892, how Lizzie was hounded by the police, prosecutors, and reporters, and then finally acquitted - yet always believed to be guilty. Was she a murderer or truly innocent? Did she swing the hatchet that killed her parents, or was Lizzie simply part of a plot that accidentally led to murders committed by a madman? You'll have the chance to decide for yourself as the suspects are revealed, the conspiracies unveiled, and the strange circumstances of this haunting case are presented. Forget everything you already think you know about this compelling case and discover what did - and what did not - happen in the story of Lizzie Borden! What dark secrets have never been told? What happened in the grim aftermath of the murder trial? Do the spirits of the dead still linger in the house where the Bordens were killed? You'll find these answers and more and you'll never look at this chilling story in the same way again!

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. A new look at Lizzie Borden By S. O'Toole The Lizzie Borden case is one of those events that divides people into two camps; Lizzie did it or she didn't. The fact is, the truth will probably never be known. If she did it the prosecution blew the case; if she didn't...who did? Taylor's theory as to who the killer was is compelling and made with reasonable argument. Is he right? Who knows, but the logic seems well reasoned.I've seen arguments here that claim the author "cherry picks" his evidence but I disagree. He's not the first to point out the timeline doesn't work for Lizzie to be the killer. He's not the first to bring attention to what was obviously overlooked during the initial phases of the investigation and he's not the first to point out the obvious; the evidence collected points to Lizzie Borden as innocent of the murders. The prosecution believed they had no case even then; based on the actual evidence and not the hearsay and gossip that was then (and remains now) a huge part of this case.In the end I doubt this book sways anyone from one camp to the other. For anyone on the fence or interested in the crime that hasn't decided, this book is a must read as it offers a new look at the murders, the trial and the aftermath overall and makes a reasonable argument that someone other than Lizzie Borden took that axe and gave....well, you know the rest.
5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. author believes Lizzie was innocent By Gryphon50 The author believes that Lizzie was innocent. Some of the "evidence" for this is ridiculous. Here I will refute some of the author's points:(1) He says Andrew came home at 11am and was dead by 11:15. Other books question this time frame. But he says Lizzie did not have time to kill him, clean up, go out to the barn, eat pears, look for lead, etc. Hello! Those last three items were what SHE said she did! No witness ever saw her doing those things, which conveniently take her out of the house and away from the murder.(2) The author says Lizzie could not kill within a short amount of time.Then who could? She couldn't, but some unnamed perp could kill Abby, wait around undetected in a tiny house for an hour and a half, kill Andrew as soon as he lies down, clean up, stash the murder weapon, and leave the house unseen by anyone. She can't do it, but he can.(3) Also, he said Lizzie did not hate Abby (!) and didn't call her mother because she was an adult. Really? Because Lizzie was raised by Abby from the age of four on. Lizzie didn't call her mother because Abby evidently was not a very motherly person. She definitely hated her and would snap at anyone who referred to Abby as her mother.(4) Then there is the tired contention that there was "no blood" on Lizzie. But there was a speck of blood on the outside of her petticoat six inches from the floor, which she blamed on her period (on the OUTSIDE of the petticoat, SIX INCHES from the floor, that makes a lot of sense). The author says a small spatter of blood on the back of her petticoat is insignficant. When was the last time you were spattered with blood?? As for it being on the back, a petticoat is like a skirt, it can be spun around (for instance, if you got undressed and then re-dressed).(5) Lizzie burned a dress in the kitchen stove, on a day when police were searching the house looking for evidence. At no point did she offer the dress to police, although she knew they were looking for a dress. The author says yes, Lizzie burned a dress, but a witness said it was not the dress she saw Lizzie in the day of the murder. But Lizzie would most likely have CHANGED HER CLOTHES before the witness saw her.(6) The author agrees with the defense that Lizzie's attempted purchase of cyanide the day before is not relevant because the victims were killed with an ax. This logic is mind-boggling to me. She didn't care how they died, as long as they were died. It shows an attempt on her part.In short, the author makes sure to cherry pick facts to put forth his pet theory on Lizzie's innocence. While it is a well-written book, I can't recommend it.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A theory that fits the facts By B. Mckee I enjoyed reading this interesting book. It seems to cover the entire story and not just the well-known high spots. The book is well-researched but contains a lot of typos.Lizzie Borden's story is covered in more detail than I have seen before. It is a failing of Americans that they are unable to assume a person's innocence until they are proven guilty in a court of law. This may be true the world over, but Americans are guaranteed that right in the Constitution.In this case several lives were destroyed because, even though Lizzie Borden was acquitted, she was never assumed to be innocent.
