The Last Gasp: The Rise and Fall of the American Gas Chamber
Scott Christianson
First constructed in Nevada in 1924, the gas chamber, a method of killing sealed off and removed from the sight and hearing of witnesses, was originally touted as a 'humane' method of execution. Delving into science, war, industry, medicine, law, and politics, the author overturns this mythology for good.
