About this Item

Print on Demand. This book examines the complex history of the arsenic poisoning case of Julie DÃ silie, a woman from rural Quebec who died under mysterious circumstances in 1862.

Ultimately, this book offers a valuable glimpse into a fascinating historical episode and provides insights into the enduring questions surrounding the intersection of science, law, and the pursuit of truth.
