Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, part of a series that presents historical prison case studies, provides remarkable insight into the lives of female inmates. Exploring the Victorian prison system, the author draws on the experience of working as a prison matron in the service of the British government. She contends that prison life in England did not seek to rehabilitate but rather to punish. Drawing on real-life accounts, the book offers a deeper look at the complex humanity behind the stereotypes of incarcerated women. The text not only provides first-hand accounts of the harsh realities of women's imprisonment, but through the author's own experiences, the reader gets a comprehensive overview of how the psychological and physical well-being of the women were utterly dependent on the temperaments and personalities of the matrons who oversaw them.
