Last Woman Hanged: The Terrible, True Story
of Louisa Collins
by Caroline Overington
#UM0682
Paperback, 386 pages; 2016 (2014)
$18.99
On January 8, 1889, Louisa Collins was executed in the colony of New
South Wales, hanged for the murder of her second husband. In fact,
Collins, an impoverished mother of ten, was suspected of poisoning
her first husband, too, but three previous trials had failed to garner
a guilty verdict for either crime. This fascinating historical narrative
revives the
“terrible, true story”
of Collins and her tragic demise, delving
into the original forensic evidence and examining the extraordinary
four trials to discover the truth about Collins’s guilt. In the course of
her investigation, Caroline Overington brings to life such fascinating
characters as the all-male jury members who convicted Collins; the
young girl coerced to testify against her mother; the notorious hangman who oversaw the
accused’s final moments; and the brave women who took up Collins’s cause—and sparked a
women’s rights movement that would profoundly affect the fledgling nation of Australia.
