In the state of Georgia, 1025 men and women are known to have been hanged or electrocuted for capital crimes in the century after the Civil War. Based on more than twenty years of investigative research, this complete chronological record of these legal executions was pieced together from diverse sources in and outside of the state, with many details never before been made public.

The author documents the facts as they occurred without delving into the politics of capital punishment.
