Omschrijving
The Autobiography of Jack Ketch is a memoir written by Jack Ketch himself, a notorious executioner in England during the 17th century. The book was first published in 1835 and provides a detailed account of Ketch's life, his career as a hangman, and the various executions he carried out.Ketch was known for his brutal methods of execution, which often involved multiple attempts to hang the condemned before they finally died. He was also notorious for his involvement in the execution of high-profile figures such as James Scott, Duke of Monmouth, and William Russell, Lord Russell.In his autobiography, Ketch provides a first-hand account of his experiences as an executioner, including the various techniques he used and the psychological toll that his work took on him. He also discusses his personal life, including his relationships with his family and his struggles with alcoholism.Overall, The Autobiography of Jack Ketch is a fascinating and disturbing account of one of the most notorious figures in English history. It offers a unique perspective on the practice of execution during the 17th century and sheds light on the personal struggles of an individual who was both feared and reviled by society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
