Book Description
Excerpt from Select List of References on Capital Punishment This is the second list which has resulted from the cooperation of the Division of Bibliography and the State and legislative reference librarians throughout the country. A preliminary list was prepared in typewritten form and sent to each State library or legislative reference library, where such existed. Results in the form of additional titles or suggestions were received from the following States: Connecticut Indiana Kansas Maryland (Baltimore) Massachusetts Ohio Rhode Island Texas Virginia Wisconsin The material is gathered under three heads: General discussions, writings in favor of capital punishment, and those opposed to capital punishment. The Subject Index affords a clue to writings and statistics devoted to any particular country, and to certain special subjects, such as substitutes for capital punishment, methods of inflicting the death penalty, etc., incidental to the main subject.
