SynopsisFocusing on crime with images derived from the Burn's Archives, this is a photographic history concentrating on the period between 1850 and 1950 when criminals often admitted their crimes and were quickly punished - the development of change in punishments prescribed is documented here in iconic photographs. This compilation gives readers a forensic view, offering entire series of images used by detectives or that reveal the evolving standards of the US criminal justice system from water torture to work camps. This evidence is a call for justice and resource for historians., An unforgettable study of the many forms of state-sanctioned executions. Graphic, gripping and compelling, this volume is a testament to the most disturbing acts in the name of justice.
