[EAN: 9780919214934], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [PU: Frontier Books, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada], CANADIANA HANGING TRUE CRIME HISTORY, ILLUSTRATED "The FIRST person hanged in Canada was believed to have been a sixteen-year-old girl for petty theft, a once common sentence." "Born in Brandon, Manitoba in 1919, Frank W. Anderson has one of the most remarkable life stories of any Western Canadian historian. Orphaned at 18 months, he grew up in foster homes, reform schools and jails. At age 16, he was convicted of killing a prison guard and was sentenced to death. This was commuted to life and he spent the next 15 years in a penitentiary. There he completed his high school education and became the first prisoner in Canada to take University courses behind bars. He was appointed by Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau to the National Parole Board in 1974. Placed in charge of the Prairie Region which covered Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and the North West Territories, he held this position until his retirement. In 1998, the University of Ottawa created the Frank W. Anderson Archives of Criminology to serve as a resource center for students across Canada." ABC Bookworld Very good orange trade paperback. Some wear, creasing. 1982, 8vo, 62pp. 2 pages advertising bound in.<
