Stephen Trombley – The Execution Protocol (1992)

Stephen Trombley – Execution Protocol: Inside America’s Capital Punishment Industry

This is the first book to examine with absolute candor what it is like to live and die on America’s death row. Over a year of intensive research, author Stephen Trombley immersed himself in the shadowy world of the capital punishment industry, embarking on an extraordinary personal odyssey that allowed him to hear of things, and witness scenes, that most people can’t even bring themselves to think about.

The result is a shocking insight into the history and present practice of state-sanctioned capital punishment.

In Cold Blood looked at the crime. The Executioner’s Song looked at the criminal. The Execution Protocol looks at the executioners preparing their deadly machinery. It is a modern classic which will change the way we think of capital punishment.
