Book Description
Excerpt from The Twin Hells: A Thrilling Narrative of Life in the Kansas and Missouri Penitentiaries Life, or they surely would have resisted tempta tion and kept out of crime. The following pages will impart to the reader some idea of what he may expect to endure in case he be comes entangled in the meshes of the law, and is compelled to do service for the State with out any remuneration. Every penitentiary is a veritable hell. Deprive a person of his liberty, punish and maltreat him, and you fill his life with misery akin to those who wander in the darkness of eternal night. I think, when the reader has perused the following pages, he will agree with me, that the book has the proper title That this volume may prove an eye-opener to the boys who may read it, and prove interesting and instructive.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Twin Hells: A Thrilling Narrative of Life in the Kansas and Missouri Penitentiaries The following pages treat of hell - A Kansas hell and a Missouri hell. Those who desire to peruse works that tell about Heaven only, are urged to drop this book and run. I was an inmate of the Kansas penitentiary for sixteen months, and make mention of what came under my own observation in connection with what I experienced. While an inmate of this prison I occupied cells at various times with convicts who had served terms in the Missouri prison. From these persons I gathered much useful material for my book. After my release I visited the Missouri penitentiary, and verified the statements of those criminals, and gathered additional material from the prison records and the officials. I have written chiefly for the youth of the country, but all ages will be deeply interested in the following pages. A large majority of the convicts are young men from sixteen to twenty-five years of age. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Forgotten Reformer
Author: Frank Morn
Publisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 0761853006
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
Forgotten Reformer traces criminal justice practice and reform developments in late nineteenth-century America through the life and career of Robert McClaughry, a leading reformer. As a warden of one of America's toughest prisons, as a chief of police of Chicago, as a superintendent of two different reformatories, and as one of the first wardens of the federal prison system, McClaughry developed and led a reform movement that resonates today. As a founding member of the reformatory movement that sought to "save" young first offenders, McClaughry advocated new sentencing structures, probation, parole, and rehabilitative regimes within new institutions for young first offenders called reformatories. McClaughry then successfully got these reformatory ideals placed into adult prisons. In addition, McClaughry became American's main advocate for a criminal identification method called the Bertillon system. He set up the first identification bureaus at the Illinois State Penitentiary, the Chicago police department, and the federal prison at Leavenworth, Kansas and these became models for others across the country. Finally, as a founding member of the National Association of Chiefs of Police (today the International Association of Chiefs of Police) and the National Prison Assocation (today American Corrections Association), McClaughry sought to professionalize police and prison administrators.
