WITHIN THESE WALLS. Memoirs of a Death House Chaplain

Hardback. A powerful memoir of a man who spent 15yrs. as a death house chaplain in the Texas prison system. He gave comfort to 95 men before they were put to death by lethal injection. Some of the men were contrite and others angry but, without doubt, some of those men were innocent. All of them found with Reverend Pickett a final few hours of compassion and unbiased support, because he saw these men as fellow humans over and above the crime that society had condemned them to die for. 256pp. 8vo. h/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Lightly browned pp. o/w Nr. F. in nr. f. dw.
