Description
Over the centuries of British history, from the Anglo-Saxons to the 1960s, our society imposed the death penalty for serious crime. This book tells the story of the pardons, the reprieves, the performances of some brilliant barristers to save clients, and the thorny problem of insanity and diminished responsibility.
