- Summary:
- "There are over 750 men and women on California's Death Row in San Quentin and Chowchilla State Prisons. The State is tasked to feed each condemned inmate two hot meals and one bag lunch each day. There is no other death row in this country, or the world, that feeds so many people who are sentenced to die. In this book you will read about many amazing meals that are being prepared behind these walls. You will laugh at some, and other you will have to taste yourself. The condemned inmates put a lot of joy and love into cooking because it could be our last meals."--Back cover.
