The trial of John T. Scopes in Dayton, TN in 1925 pitted evolution against fundamentalism and Biblical literalism. The trial was famous both in its own time and in folk lore ever since. (A 1960 movie loosely based on the trial won an Academy Award for its star, Spencer Tracy.) Key documents (and a few pictures) from that trial are provided below.
