This was book #23 for the Pop Sugar reading challenge. This category was a play. The story is actually quite interesting - based on a true story. The story was the 1925 Scopes Monkey Trail. A high school teacher was arrested for breaking a local statue against teaching Evolution. It was probably one of the greatest and most sensational trials until that time.
I expected a little more from the courtroom battle between the Defense and the Prosecution. I wanted more drama. Maybe something is lost when reading in your head versus actually seeing it performed? At any rate, I enjoyed the play and I am glad that I read it.
