No Remorse
Pretty decent book, seems to be written in a main stream media sort of way, very politically correct. Very entertaining stories and very general history of prisons, riots, executions, murders, and gangs etc. It also included some good lists, like the top 10 prison movies. Also, many interesting prison related books are mentioned which makes it a good source for other material.
