Item description from seller

46 Pages. Wakefield’s observations on Newgate form the basis of a critique of capital punishment and its administration. Dodd considers the moral unease surrounding public executions, the conditions in which prisoners awaited death, and the broader question of whether such penalties served justice or merely spectacle. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 18 x 26 cms. Category: Quarterly Review; Special Interest. Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers. A bookseller you can rely on.
