Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of reform and penal institutions in the United States, focusing on industrial and reform schools. The author, an advocate for humane reform, recounts his travels and in-depth observations of various institutions during the late 19th century. He examines the strengths and weaknesses of the congregate or prison plan, contrasting it with the family or cottage plan, which he strongly endorses. The author argues that the family plan, with its emphasis on kindness, parental guidance, and vocational training, offers a more effective approach to rehabilitating juvenile offenders. This book sheds light on the historical development of juvenile justice and provides valuable insights into the ongoing debate about the best methods for reforming young people.
