Synopsis
Excerpt from Wall Shadows a Study in American Prisons
On the other hand, there are a few books by genuine men of science which are accurate and valuable; although these are less con cerned, usually, with the details of prisons than with the psychology of the men before they are confined. But such a volume as William Healy''s The Individual Delinquent is of permanent value.
For the general student the best books are these few, like Donald Lowrie''s M y Life in Prison, Al Jenning''s Through the Shadows with 0. Henry and this book of my friend, Frank Tannenbaum; books which combine a sane and healthy social point of view with an intimate knowledge of prison life.
