What is Real Justice: Convicted for Being Mi'kmaq: The story of Donald Marshall Jr. (Lorimer Real Justice) about?

The shocking and compelling story of Nova Scotia's Donald Marshall Jr., who spent 11 years in prison for a murder he did not commit. Marshall was wrongfully convicted after Sydney police, crown attorneys and Nova Scotia courts botched an investigation and convicted him on the basis of false testimony. His case was ultimately the subject of a Royal Commission that found underlying racism in the justice system. Centring the story on Donald Marshall's experiences, this book is a compelling account of how the justice system can go badly wrong -- and how it can face up to its flaws. BILL SWAN is an award-winning author of many books for young readers. His book on the wrongfully convicted Steven Truscott won the 2013 Red Maple Non-Fiction Award. He lives in Courtice, Ontario. Commended - Best Books for Kids & Teens - Canadian Children's Book Centre Will interest readers ages 13+. Highly readable.
