Hanging In Chains is a historical non-fiction book written by Albert Hartshorne and originally published in 1891. The book provides a detailed account of the practice of hanging criminals in chains after their execution, which was a common punishment in England during the 18th and 19th centuries. The author explores the history of this punishment, its purpose, and the various methods used to carry it out. The book also includes numerous accounts of specific cases in which criminals were subjected to this punishment, as well as illustrations and photographs of the chains and structures used to display the bodies. Overall, Hanging In Chains offers a fascinating insight into a little-known aspect of English criminal history and provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of punishment and justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
