Tells the story of Robert Rice Howard (1832-1906), the man known as Nosey Bob. The book covers an important chapter in the story of the changing attitudes towards capital punishment in Australia, as the country transformed from generally enthusiastic spectators at executions into campaigners for the abolition of the death penalty.
