Parnassus Books in Nashville is hosting the launch of former Tennessee Bar Journal editor Suzanne Craig Robertson's book, He Called Me Sister: A True Story of Finding Humanity on Death Row. The event will be on Feb. 21 at 6:30 p.m. CST. The event is free, but seating is limited and registration is required. With a foreword by Sister Helen Prejean and preface by Bill Moyers, the memoir recounts the Robertson family's 15-year friendship with Cecil Johnson, who was on Tennessee's death row and was executed in 2009. Drawing from Johnson's own memoir, news accounts and court documents, the book also features interviews with many lawyers involved in the case. Preorders are available from Parnassus and other online retailers.
