By Benjamin Feldman

Sexual Politics & the Burdell-Cunningham Case in Antebellum New York

A successful bachelor dentist. A scheming widow. A faked marriage. A bloody murder. And that’s just the beginning of it.

Author Benjamin Feldman brings to life (and death) the shocking and true tale of Dr. Harvey Burdell and Mrs. Emma Cunningham—-a murder mystery as torrid and intriguing as anything Agatha Christie or Sir Arthur Conan Doyle could have conceived.
