A propos de cet article

A nice 192 page first edition hardcover. Has a little general wear and is still nice. From dust jacket flap: Throughout history, cultures around the world have found justice for the most extreme crimes by condemning the guilty to death. Retribution has been served by many methods, from beheading, garroting, entombment, and burning, to modern means such as electrocution and lethal injection. In the process of inflicting torturous pain, even more ingenious devices have been employed. While torture has usually been carried out behind closed doors, it is only recently that executions have ceased to be a popular and public spectacle. Size: 12h x 9w. N° de réf. du vendeur 1611
