Novels, histories, movies, and television series often depict courts martial as brutal and inflexible, and social memories of this system of frontline justice have inspired modern movements to seek pardons for soldiers executed on the battlefield. In this powerful and moving book, Teresa Iacobelli looks beyond stories of callous generals and quick executions to consider the trials of nearly two hundred soldiers who were sentenced to death but spared by a disciplinary system capable of thoughtful review and compassion. By bringing to light these men's experiences, \u003ci\u003eDeath or Deliverance\u003c\/i\u003e reconsiders an important chapter in the history of both a war and a nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Teresa Iacobelli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774825685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774825689\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Teresa Iacobelli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906593050879,"sku":"9780774825689","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c938f688-5df7-4630-b9dd-d81751c3a66f.jpg?v=1748770869","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/death-or-deliverance-teresa-iacobelli-9780774825689","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
