Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Abnutzungen; Gebogener Buchrucken; Farbveranderung durch Alter/Sonne. Posledni myslenky vrahu pred popravou.Michelle Lyons byla behem 11 let svedkem 280 poprav. Nejprve jako reporterka, pote jako tiskova mluvci Texaskeho vezenskeho systemu. Zazila posledni minuty zivota lidi, kteri - casto mnoho let pred tim - nekoho o zivot pripravili. Setkavala se s jejich blizkymi i s blizkymi tech, ktere zavrazdili. Autorka rozhodne neni zadne sentimentalni devcatko, je to typicka Texasanka, ktera ma rada zbrane a spravedlnost ve stylu ,oko za oko". Ma ostre pero, pozorovaci talent, ale zaroven nepostrada empatii a schopnost videt veci a lidi v cele jejich slozitosti. Zbytecne nepsychologizuje, ale na druhe strane nabizi mimoradne plasticky pohled na jednu z nejextremnejsich situaci lidske existence.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Motor City boasts a long and sordid history of scoundrels, cheats and ne'er-do-wells. The wheeling and dealing prowess of founding father Antoine Cadillac is the stuff of legend. Fur trader and charlatan Joseph Campau grew so corrupt and rambunctious that he was eventually excommunicated by Detroit's beloved Father Gabriel Richard. The slovenly and eccentric Augustus Brevoort Woodward, well known as a judge but better known as a drunkard, renamed himself, reshaped the city streets and then named them after himself, creating a legion of enemies along the way. Local historian and creator of the Prohibition Detroit blog Mickey Lyons presents the stories of the colorful characters who shaped the city we know today.
