The Death Penalty on Trial: Taking a Life for a Life Taken

The Death Penalty on Trial: Taking a Life for a Life Taken

Ron Gleason. Ventura, Calif.: Nordskog Publishing, 2009. 156 pp. (Paperback).

Ron Gleason gives an in-depth look at the death penalty and provides some rather argumentative objections to the controversy behind it. He pulls from philosophical ideals and biblical passages to make his point. He also argues both sides of the issue. This book is a powerful message that will leave you looking at capital punishment in a whole new light by asking the question: Why shouldn’t the courts take a life for a life taken?
