Product Information

A wry, instructive, and hugely entertaining account of "one of the most sensational trials in American history" ( New York Times Book Review ). On the night of July 3, 1870, Elizabeth Tilton confessed to her husband that she'd had an affair with their pastor, Henry Ward Beecher. This secret would soon transfix America, for Beecher was the most famous preacher of the day, founder of the most fashionable church in Brooklyn Heights, a presidential hopeful, an influential supporter of Abolition, and a leader of the campaign for women's suffrage. When Beecher tried to silence the Tiltons, it was a whisper network of suffragists, notably Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who spread news of the affair, and it was the radical Victoria Woodhull--an outspoken proponent of "free love"--who seized on it, as political dynamite, to blow up the myth of monogamy among the political elite. Her public accusations led to even more public trials, which shocked the country and divided the most progressive thinkers of the era. In 1953, the journalist Robert Shaplen revisited the Tilton-Beecher affair in a series of articles for the New Yorker , relying on 3,000 pages of contemporary accounts--court transcripts, love-letters, newspaper reports and illustrations, even political cartoons--to reanimate a scandal that shook the American reform movement and to expose a strand of America's cultural DNA that remains recognizable today.

Reviews
One of the most sensational trials in American history . . . Shaplen tells the story with unvarnished realism against a background of circumstantial detail . . . In reviving what the author calls the 'passion drama' of the period he has brought a celebrated case into contemporary focus and has done it tellingly, assembling the record with stark precision and linking it closely to the moral and religious attitudes of the day., Free Love came out in 1954, and it's fun to view this much older affair through the lens of Shaplen's durable midcentury elegance--looking back in time twice. And yet we may as well be in the present . . . To be sure, Shaplen knows how to draw the preacher and his cohort into the currents of their time., When Theodore Tilton brought Henry Ward Beecher into court in 1875 on the charge of alienating his wife's affections, he raised the curtain on one of the most sensational trials in American history. The accused had been an intimate family friend of the Tiltons and was pastor of Plymouth Church in Brooklyn and a noted preacher and lecturer on public issues of the day. In Free Love and Heavenly Sinners, based on his articles in the New Yorker, Robert Shaplen tells the story with unvarnished realism against a background of circumstantial detail, much of it taken from the 3,000-page official record of the trial . . . In reviving what the author calls the 'passion drama' of the period he has brought a celebrated case into contemporary focus and has done it tellingly, assembling the record with stark precision and linking it closely to the moral and religious attitudes of the day.
