What a Way to Go by Geoffrey Abbott

In this wickedly humorous book, Geoffrey Abbott describes the effectiveness of instruments of torture and reveals the macabre origins of phrases such as gone west or drawn a blank. From the preparation of the victim to the disposal of the body, "What a Way to Go" covers everything you ever wanted to know about the ultimate penalty and a lot you never thought to ask.
Abbott, Geoffrey: -

Geoffrey Abbott served for many years as a Yeoman Warder at the Tower of London. Author of nineteen books and contributor to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, he has made numerous television appearances. He lives in London.
