I Am Murdered: George Wythe, Thomas Jefferson, and the Killing That Shocked a New Nation

Bruce Chadwick provides a thumbnail sketch of his book here, which is not only about a botched murder investigation but about the great man "murdered" and his times. Excellent teaching method. Good read though repeats some of the Wythe stuff and slights the trial.
