New York: William Morrow, 2003. Clean, square, tight, unmarked copy. Sharp corners. Not a book club edition. Not price clipped (25.95). No owner's name or bookplate. No remainder mark. This study is based on the examination of police records, trial transcripts, and appellate decisions, as well as hundreds of interviews. Key players are Oklahoma County district attorney Bob Macy, whose office racked-up 21 executions in 2001, and police chemist Joyce Gilchrist who was subsequently fired for mismanaging the crime lab, but who gave pivotal testimony, now suspect, in numerous death penalty cases. From the Dust Jacket: "Are innocent people being executed? ... When he began DEATH AND JUSTICE, Mark Fuhrman was a firm believer in the death penalty. What he saw in Oklahoma changed his mind. It may change yours." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. 8vo. xii, 276pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well.
