Third in a series, this book chronicles use of the death penalty by civil and military authorities in what is now the state of New Jersey. While the entire number of legal executions that took place in New Jersey will probably never be known, all documented executions conducted in or by the state from 1691 through 1963 are covered here in chronological order. Each entry includes the executed person's name, age, gender, and race, as well as a detailed account of the crime for which he or she was sentenced to death and information on the place and method of execution.
