This book is not a personal account of my experiences
at the prison. Instead, as with the first book, it is a historical
narrative and a source of detailed information for penologists,
researchers, students, and teachers. The book has seven
sections covering the changing policies and institutional
buildings from 1911 to 2024. Organized around the six most
essential considerations faced by prison managers, i.e., the
physical plant, administration, offender classification,
offender treatment, prison labor, and discipline, each chapter
begins with a significant development at the prison.
