Last Words of the Executed
Robert K. Elder
Some beg for forgiveness. Others claim innocence. At least three cheer for their favorite football teams. This book presents an oral history of American capital punishment, as heard from the gallows, the chair, and the gurney. It explores the cultural value of these final statements and asks what we can learn from them.
