“The most interesting historical true-crime stories in recent years.” –Strand Magazine
Feb 14th, 2023
Strand Magazine reviews four of our most recent true crime titles.
“Kent State University Press has been publishing some of the most interesting historical true-crime stories in recent years. Some of these cases dominated the headlines nationwide; others were simply nine-day wonders in small towns and rapidly faded into obscurity. The publisher’s True Crime History series has done marvelous work in identifying little-known tales that ought to be better known, most of which offer powerful insights into issues of race, gender, class, and politics.”—Strand Magazine
