Carolyn N. Long. Mapp v. Ohio: Guarding Against Unreasonable Searches and Seizures. Lawrence, KS, University Press of Kansas, 2006. KF224.M213 L66 2006
From the publisher: Although she came to be known as merely “that girl with the dirty
books,” Dollree Mapp was a poor but proud black woman who defied a
predominantly white police force by challenging the legality of its
search-and-seizure methods. Her case, which went all the way to the
Supreme Court, remains hotly debated and highly controversial today.
