Woman on Death Row
Velma Barfield was the first woman in the United States to be executed after the 1976 resumption of capital punishment and the first since 1962. She was also the first woman to be executed by lethal injection. Convicted of one murder but eventually confessing to others, this book is the story in her own words of her trials in life and her path towards spiritual redemption.
