Book Description
Excerpt from Prisons and Prisoners A. Thorough conviction of the high importance of the qu estion of Prison Discipline, as it bears upon the moral and social condition of the community, and the positive assurance felt of the general want of correct information, together with a large amount of existing preja dice, are the considerations which have induced the writer to enter upon the subject of the following pages. His particular atten tion has long been given to the condition of penal institutions and their general regime, and as Opportunities have been presented, he has made himself acquainted with the main points of dispute te specting the prevailing systems of discipline at home and abroad, and in no limited degree, by personal observation, has endeavoured to ascertain their practical results.
