Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pictures From Prison Life: An Historical Sketch of the Massachusetts State Prison, With Narratives and Incidents, and Suggestions on Discipline There are few, if any, of the various institutions of the commonwealth in which so much interest is felt as in the State Prison. For more than sixty years its frowning walls have stood a silent yet impressive monitor, reminding the evil-doer that "the way of the transgressor is hard." Still, but little is generally known of the history of the prison. This fact has led the author of this book to examine the records, - meagre, indeed, and yet important, - and to prepare, according to the best of his ability, a reliable account, as full and satisfactory as the material at his command would permit. His official connection for many years with the management of this institution has furnished him with many thrilling incidents, and has also enabled him to learn the many traditions that have been handed down through successive administrations.
