Item specifics

Seller Notes: “Hardcover. 12mo. Published by Hale, Cushman and Flint, Boston, MA. 1929. 130 pgs. First ... “Hardcover. 12mo. Published by Hale, Cushman and Flint, Boston, MA. 1929. 130 pgs. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities (pieces missing from the top and bottom edge of the spine). Bound in black cloth boards with paper title label present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. A Handbook on Hanging is a Swiftian tribute to that unappreciated mainstay of civilization: the hangman. With barbed insouciance, Charles Duff writes not only of hanging but of electrocution, decapitations, and gassings; of innocent men executed and of executions botched; of the bloodlust of mobs and the shabby excuses of the great. This coruscating and, in contemporary America, very relevant polemic makes clear that whatever else capital punishment may be said to be--justice, vengeance, a deterrent--it is certainly killing.”
