The inside story of sanctioned murder in America as seen by the men who design the machinery of execution and by those who are to be executed. For many months Steven Trombley immersed himself in the community of the condemned, the world most people prefer to ignore. This book is based on more than 400 hours of interviews with executioners, with the inventor of the machines of execution, with the condemned themselves, and an account of the author's own experience as witness to two executions. This is the journey into the death chambers of the 37 states of the US that still have them as well as a condemnation of a system that so easily dehumanizes those who are charged with carrying out the will of the people.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.
