Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars The Last Hanging in Detroit   September 27, 2007
Well written and an excellent story. Stephen Gifford Simmons was the youngest brother of my ancestor, William Simmons. What a sad end to someone who didn't utilize all of the advantages he was born with. It is a testament to what alcohol can do to anyone.
