Throughout the centuries there has been no end to the imaginative methods the state has sanctioned to execute those who have committed criminal acts. Howard Engel has brought the eye of a novelist and the heart of a gentleman to his subject. The entertaining text is complemented by over seventy historical paintings, photographs, woodcuts, and engravings of executions and executioners. The result is a highly readable and deliciously macabre trip into the world of our authorized merchants of death.
