The Hatchet: Lizzie Borden’s Journal of Murder, Mystery & Victorian History

feb2008

The Hatchet found a new Lizzie Borden image! Read all about it in this press release!

The newest issue of The Hatchet is now online for your viewing pleasure. The Hatchet is in its fifth year of publication and this issue marks #21. As the magazine is now an official adult, there will be a party!

Subscriptions for the ONLINE journal are still only $20 for four issues! You can subscribe here.

In this issue: a fantastic piece on Emma’s 1913 interview by Borden scholar and author Leonard Rebello; a story detailing the finding of the Lizzie Borden photograph (PLUS OTHER SURPRISES FOUND) by Stefani Koorey, Ph.D. (that’s me); another great installment of “Lizzie Borden Girl Detective” by Richard Behrens; a personal tribute to the late Neilson Caplain by his son Ron; a story about Lizzie’s Grand Tour by Shelley Dziedzic; an interview with criminologist, Professor Thomas Mauriello; a sweet plea about Edwin Porter’s grave by Sherry Chapman; a list of all residents of Second Street in 1892 (a massive accomplishment) by Harry Widdows; biographical pieces by Kat Koorey; and our regulars—Mary Elizabeth Naugle, Sherry Chapman, Douglas Walters, Eugene Hosey, and Denise Noe bringing in their very best work!

We have made some changes to the journal, the most obvious of which is the name. Now we are known at The Hatchet: Lizzie Borden’s Journal of Murder, Mystery & Victorian History. We are broadening our niche and promise to bring you the same level of scholarship and entertainment you have been used to.

The print copy of The Hatchet will be available later in the week through LuLu.com. Check back here for details.

They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.
