Books in stir

Description:

I used this book as a resource for a research paper on the History of Prison libraries and it was an excellent source for a detailed look at prison libraries from 1802 until 1971. Also, the essays written by inmates from years ago were very stirring and authentic. "Book in Stir" was put together well and was the result of a lot or research in the areas of prison, inmates and prison libraries.
