Hanging in Judgement - Religion and the Death Penalty in England from the Bloody Code to Abolition - Thryft

Capital punishment's intertwine with England's religious history.

If you're fascinated by the crossroads of religion, law, and morality, "Hanging In Judgement" offers a thought-provoking dive into England's past where the stakes of human life hung in the balance. It's a compelling look at the often-overlooked role that the Church of England played in the debate over capital punishment, shedding light on the ethical complexities and societal norms of the time. For history buffs and those interested in the evolution of justice, this book adds depth to the understanding of how deep convictions influenced the life and death laws of the land.
