Description

Using a historical framework, this book offers not only the penal history of the death penalty in the states that have given women the death penalty, but it also retells the stories of the women who have been executed and those currently awaiting their fate on death row. This work takes a historical look at women and the death penalty in the United States from 1900 to 1998.

It gives the reader a look at the penal codes in the various states regarding the death penalty and the personal stories of women who have been executed or who are currently on death row.

As Americans continue to debate the enforcement of the death penalty, the issues of race and gender as they relate to the death penalty are also debated.

This book offers a unique perspective to a recurring sociopolitical issue.
