Title: Pierrepoint a family of Execuioners
Review: Pierrepoint A Family of Executioners is a very factual account of the History of the Pierrepoint Family I think the Author built the book around Official documents which would have he barest of details as the book shows once or twice, I personally enjoyed the book better than Pierrepoint Executioner which is told by the man himself who unfortunately comes across as a little Cocky and self serving, but if one remembers what he did for a living he may be excused, the Family of Executioners is a good read for those who are interested in that type of History and how the law was applied in England up until the sixties it didn't appear that the threat of the Death Penalty had much effect on curbing the Murder rate in the years covered by this book, I gave it four stars
