A Pit of Shame: The executed prisoners of Boggo Road (second edition, 2010)

Christopher Dawson

They came from all corners of the world – Asia, Europe, the Americas and Australia... They killed for love or money, in desperation or drunkenness… They were all hanged at Boggo Road, and they were buried in South Brisbane Cemetery. A Pit of Shame tells the stories of the 42 executed people – their crimes, their last words, and their deaths.
