The Hanged Man
Seven hundred years ago, executioners led a Welsh rebel named William Cragh to a wintry hill to be hanged. They placed a noose around his neck, dropped him from the gallows, and later pronounced him dead. But was he dead? This book tells the story of this putative miracle - why it happened, what it meant, and how we know about it.
