Perhaps never before in the history of the American penal system has a man witnessed more electrocutions than Reid, who as Associated Press and \u003ci\u003eHuntsville Item\u003c\/i\u003e representative watched 189 men die in 'Old Sparky, ' as the electric chair in the Texas Department of Corrections' death chamber was not so affectionately called. This book is a powerful personal account of Reid's conversations with many of the very men he later watched receive the eighteen hundred volts of electricity from generators reserved for electrocutions and his later, almost evangelical efforts to defend the men on Death Row from a similar fate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Don Reid, John Gurwell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1881515338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781881515333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Texas Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.48h x 5.43w x 0.54d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2001 pg. 149","brand":"Don Reid","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074055303423,"sku":"9781881515333","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b5d95b43-cad8-4abe-9ab0-715a8ea1d9b4.jpg?v=1685451511","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/have-a-seat-please-don-reid-9781881515333","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
