AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Could adults deliberatley persecute an innocent child in any civilized community today? Could an eight-year-old boy become the victim of adult prejudice and hate?...Russell Braddon first read of the events upon which this novel is based in a London newspaper. He flew straight to America to discover for himself whether the truth was as horrifying as Fleet Street suggested. He found the situation to be infinitely worse.' Persisting with 'his inquiry into the facts', Braddon returned to London to write The Proud American Boy. (Source: 1960 edition)
