Reseña del libro "The Society of Maycomb and its Influence on jem and Scout in "to Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper lee (en Inglés)"

Just as Scout's father Atticus Finch, Harper Lee's father Amasa was a lawyer. When Harper Lee was growing up, nine young African-American men were innocently accused and found guilty of raping two white women in the Scottsboro Trials, similar to Tom Robinson's fate in the novel. To Kill a Mockingbird is an important novel for both young and old readers because of its appealing way to
