'Swinging in the Rain' is a comprehensive review of the executions which took place in Genesee County New York. It shares with the reader some of the most sordid of local history from 1807 to 1953 with the stories of eleven individuals executed for the crimes they committed. The author, through in-depth research, presents stories not seen in over 200 years. Presented as a compilation 'Swinging in the Rain' guides lovers of history from the scene of the crime, to the trials, to the moments upon the gallows when eternity was but seconds away for the condemned. Rob Thompson also provides curious, odd little stories such as local body snatching and the story of Bethany's peddler's gold.
