A Case for Solomon chronicles one of the most celebrated-and misunderstood-kidnapping cases in American history. In 1912, 4 year-old Bobby Dunbar, the son of an upper middle-class Louisiana family, went missing in the swamps; 8 months later, he was found in the company of a wandering piano-tuner, William Walters who was arrested and tried for kidnapping. But when a destitute single mother came forward to claim the boy as her son, not Bobby Dunbar, the case exploded. For two years, courts probed and newspapers sensationalized every aspect of the story. But it took nearly a full century for the real identity of the child to be known. In 2000, his granddaughter Margaret Dunbar Cutright, co-author of this book, dug into that legend, and the more she researched, the more she doubted. After years of debate, Margaret's father and a Dunbar cousin conducted a DNA test, against the will of the rest of the family. The results, along with all of Margaret's research, bore her doubts out: the boy was not Bobby Dunbar, but rather Bruce Anderson.
