{"product_id":"the-autobiography-of-an-execution","title":"The Autobiography of an Execution","description":"A riveting, artfully written memoir of a lawyer's life as he races to prevent death row inmates from being executed.\n\nNear the beginning of The Autobiography of an Execution, David Dow lays his cards on the table. \"People think that because I am against the death penalty and don't think people should be executed, that I forgive those people for what they did. Well, it isn't my place to forgive people, and if it were, I probably wouldn't. I'm a judgmental and not very forgiving guy. Just ask my wife.\"\n\nIt this spellbinding true crime narrative, Dow takes us inside of prisons, inside the complicated minds of judges, inside execution-administration chambers, into the lives of death row inmates (some shown to be innocent, others not) and even into his own home--where the toll of working on these gnarled and difficult cases is perhaps inevitably paid. He sheds insight onto unexpected phenomena-- how even religious lawyer and justices can evince deep rooted support for putting criminals to death-- and makes palpable the suspense that clings to every word and action when human lives hang in the balance.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0446562076\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0446562076.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Dow, David R.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
