The Trial of the Assassin Guiteau: Psychiatry and the Law in the Gilded Age
Charles E. Rosenberg
By analyzing the trial of Charles Guiteau, who assassinated US President Garfield in 1881, this text explores insanity and criminal responsibility in the late-19th century. Although the role of genetics in behaviour had been accepted, the trial debated whether heredity influenced Guiteau's actions.
