Near the close of the Civil War, as General Sherman blazed his path to the sea, an unknown infantryman rifled through the North Carolina statehouse. The soldier was hunting for simple Confederate mementos maps, flags, official correspondence but he wound up discovering something far more valuable. He headed home to Ohio with one of the touchstones of our republic: one of the fourteen original copies of the Bill of Rights. Lost Rights follows that documents singular passage over the course of 138 years, beginning with the Indiana businessman who purchased the looted parchment for five dollars, then winding its way through the exclusive and shadowy world of high-end antiquities a world populated by obsessive archivists, oddball collectors, forgers, and thieves and ending dramatically with the FBI sting that brought the parchment back into the hands of the government.
For fans of The Billionaires Vinegar and The Lost Painting , Lost Rights is a riveting detective story and a fresh new foray into American history.
