Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life in Prison I was broke. I had not eaten for three days. I had walked the streets for three nights. Every fibre of my being, every precept of my home training protested against and would not permit my begging. I saw persons all about me spending money for trifles, or luxuries. I envied the ragged street urchin as he took a nickel in exchange for a newspaper and ran expectantly to the next pedestrian. But I was broke and utterly miserable. Have you ever been broke? Have you ever been hungry and miserable, not knowing when or where you were going to get your next meal, nor where you were going to spend your next night? Have you ever tramped holes in your shoes in a tiresome, discouraging effort to get work, meeting rebuff and insults in return for your earnestness and sincerity, and encountering an utter lack of an understanding of your crying necessity in those with whom you have pleaded for a chance?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Silent Gate: A Voyage Into Prison Of course mistakes were made, but Official mis takes are bad to rectify in prison; and the man who was accused, rightly or wrongly, of talking in Church generally got the worst of it. In some cases it was a moderately safe charge to lay, and most warders had a fixed idea that you couldn't go wrong with Benjamin Cudd. Cudd was talking in church again; if he wasn't talking, he had just left oe; if he hadn't just left off, he was just going to begin: put him down for report. So, when Cudd was brought up, as usual, on Monday morning, the governor, as usual, was nasty to him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Spirit in Prison Vere heard the song as she sat in the sun with her face set towards N isida and the distant peak of Ischia; and instinctively she shifted her position, and turned her head, looking towards the calm and untroubled water that stretched between her and Naples. For the voice that sang of the beautiful city was coming towards her from the beautiful city, hymning the Siren it had left perhaps but two hours ago. On his pedestal set upon rock San Francesco seemed to be attentive to the voice. He stood beyond the sheltered pool of the sea that divided the islet from the mainland, staring across at Vere as if he envied her; he who was rooted in Italy and deprived of her exquisite freedom. His beard hung down to his waist, his cross protruded over his left shoulder, and his robe of dusty grayish brown touched his feet, which had never wan dered one step since he was made, and set there to keep watch over the fishermen who come to sleep under the lee of the island by night. Now it was brilliant daylight. The sun shone vividly over the Bay of Naples, over the great and vital city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book My Life Out of Prison Classic Reprint written by Donald Lowrie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life Out of Prison August first, nineteen hundred and eleven! To you that probably conveys nothing; to me it is a never-to-be-forgotten day, the marking of an epoch in my life - a life up to that time brimful of tragic experience and vivid impressions. Since that time my life has been equally vivid, if not tragic, though in a different way. It was on that date, after spending ten years behind stultifying steel bars and stolid stone walls, ten years in stripes and in the midst of degradation, that I was paroled from San Quentin prison. To-day this prison is the domicile of the broken-spirited ex-political boss of San Francisco, the lifelong habitat of hundreds of hopeless men and women, the living grave of nearly 2000 human beings, each of whom is a cog in the ponderous, grinding wheel of human progress, for no man nor woman suffering a ruptured life in a prison cell is a less important unit in the evolution of humanity than is the money king, the man with the hoe or the minister of the gospel. No human being has yet lived and no human being now lives who has not or does not serve an important purpose in the great scheme of things. The fact that each human being comes into the world with latent propensities, certain temperamental characteristics and well-defined likes and dislikes has always been a source of speculation for me. I believe that every thought of every human being is of immense value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
