Light Over The Scaffold And Cell 18
Unedited Letters of Jacques Fesch
By Augustine-Michel Lemonnier

Here is a man whom men have judged, condemned and executed. Here is a man whom the Lord, we are convinced, has welcomed into Life. This is the story of a man, who in his youth assaulted a passerby to rob them, failed, and in the panicked moments of fleeing, shot a policeman and wounded another. When he was finally caught, he spent three and half years in prison, and was executed for murder. In those years, he would rediscover his faith with the help of a chaplain and monk. These are his letters, written during his capitvity, showing a remarkable transformation from an unbelieving atheist, to a man who saw his punishment as "the will of God meant for his good" Intense reading, moving and a demonstration of the power of God to save anyone if they will turn to Him.
