The U.S. Government's Shame: The Story of the Great Lewis Case is a book written by Edwin C. Madden. The book tells the story of a scandal that rocked the U.S. government in the early 20th century. The scandal involved the wrongful conviction of a man named Charles Lewis, who was accused of stealing mail from a train. The case was plagued with corruption, false evidence, and witness tampering, and Lewis was ultimately sentenced to life in prison. Madden's book explores the details of the case, including the political and social context in which it occurred. He examines the roles played by various government officials, including the Attorney General, the Postmaster General, and the President of the United States. He also delves into the personal lives of the key players in the case, including Lewis himself, and offers insights into their motivations and actions. The U.S. Government's Shame is a gripping and thought-provoking account of a dark chapter in American history. It sheds light on the ways in which power and corruption can intersect, and the devastating consequences that can result. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in American politics, history, and justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
