      About the Book

      Although public executions were outlawed in Britain in 1868 and in the United States in 1936, there are still a great many countries around the world where this practice is common. From the arenos of Ancient Rome through London's notorious Tyburn tree it cannot be denied that public executions once provided a perverse form of entertainment for a great many people. This fascinating and revealing book examines the social history behind this barbarism.
