Gates of DannemoraBy far the most dreaded of all prisons in New York State is Clinton, at Dannemora, called the "Siberia of America," for unruly convicts and incorrigibles. Outside of the death sentence, a term within its gray walls is considered the severest punishment which may be inflicted within the stare's penal system.
In external appearance Clinton Prison is a model of modern efficiency. However, a feeling of despair prevails which immediately impresses even the newest inmates that they are finished as salvageable men. The number of insane convicts at Dannemora has run as high as one third of a 3,000-odd convict population.
Almost single-handedly combating the grim prison atmosphere, Father Ambrose Hyland, Catholic chaplain at Clinton Prison, has spent the last fifteen years attempting, under formidable odds, to rehabilitate these desperate men. By gaining their confidence, he has aided scores of hopeless, hardened criminals to make the most of their years of confinement by following his philosophy that their salvation must come from within themselves.
This book, based on the fascinating case histories of many of the convicts with whom Father Hyland has worked, tells how they got to Dannemora, and how, with his help, some have become good citizens when finally released, while others have inevitably failed to meet the test of freedom.
This exciting inside story of Clinton Prison may shock many readers, but even they will find in Gates of Dannemora a thrilling, inspirational biography of a man who, alone, is working modern miracles of rehabilitation.

This Our ExileAcclaimed by critics everywhere as an important literary debut of the year. It is the story of a sensitive, highly-bred family's reactions to a death in its midst, and as a whole is a realistic cross-section of a certain phase of American life to-day.

A Vendor of DreamsE.D. Cuming in "A Vendor of Dreams" (Hutchinson) has written a very promising from novel. something original and thought-provoking. The theme centres around Noel James, a man of queer notions and good-natured vagaries, who forsakes his wealthy wife and the conventions of the rich, and adopts for the time a life of tramping and vagabondage in English county villages. In Australia in earlier years the life was known as "sundowning." But Noel James had very definite and sincere ideas on the subject of tramping, and when he finally came back to his wife, and home, it was that he might become the chief of the Refuge of Vagabonds, and so inculcate his doctrines against begging when the tramp might have the choice of several odd jobs to do. The idea of a gentleman tramp, with ideals of its etiquette, might sound somewhat far-fetched; but after all it was the life in which George Borrow revelled, and a few years ago the same kind of man was not unknown in Australia, probably the most notable of them being Philip Lorimer, the swagman poet. At all events the author has provided readers with a fresh and interesting subject.
House of bondageIn 1830 ten convicts were publicly hanged in Bathurst for launching an uprising against the authorities. Until they were captured by the military, they had the Colony in turmoil, This event, ignored by historians, provides a centre-point for "House of Bondage", a vivid story of vice and violence in early Australia, of the bitter struggle between "emancipists" and "exclusives", convicts and settlers, men and nature. And behind these events, suggest the author, was the beginning of a new nation, basically different from the people of the United Kingdom. An exciting novel with a controversial theme.

For Us, the Living: A History of U.S. Army McCloskey General Hospital, Temple, Texas annotation/number of pages - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08...B08DZ9B45P
Hell's CauldronHell's Cauldron is an expose of Army and VA psychiatrist—sadistic men of warped minds—who search for symptoms to justify the confinement of sane men, while "dispensing confinement as a cure-all". It is the layman's textbook of psychiatry; giving an interesting and understandable explanation of mental illness, and the little that is known of its cause and treatment.
Captain Thomas G. E. Wilkes, an Atlanta engineer, give a vivid account of his confinement in the Army hospital at Bastrop and Temple, Texas, and the VA asylum at Augusta, Georgia; using true names of psychiastrists and Army medical officers.
The author has painted with the bold strokes the inmates, their keepers and all phases of the sordid asylum program. The reader lives the day-by-day life of the asylum inmate—an intolerable life of hopelessness and despair. He sees the asylum as "a place of futility and stupidity," where veterans receive at best "regimented creature comforts"; at worst, brutality, restraint, and criminal neglect.
Against this background is woven the emotion-packed and exciting story of a veteran's fight for freedom, the loss of the wife he loved, and his struggle to "rebuild his reputation of sanity." Here, published for the first time, are confidental letters, records, reports and diagnoses of phychiatrists; offered as substantiating evidence of this fantastic chronicle. However, they are in themselves an intriguing story; showinghow a veteran is condemned by a snow-bailing mass of words; each accuser accepting all prior charges, while adding his own to the accumulation.
I herein offer battle to the psychiatrists and their fellow-travelers; challenging them to clean up the dark alleys of their profession, or release their unfortunate victims; to offer some believable basis for their theories and practices, else admit the sorcery of their art.
This book is written in the hope that the reader will help rescue our veterans. As you read this saga, let their insuppressive story move your heart.
These veterans taste death daily, dying many times before their passing. They are not victims of the black psychiatry of some distant Communistic prison camp, but citizens of this great land of freedom. And their minds are not lost, only shiveled by years of mental torture and physical neglect.
Living, but buried—dead, but yet alive—these soldiers fought your battles against the tyranny and oppression they now endure.
They are your brothers, husbands, fathers, sons.
Listen! You can hear his stifled cry.
Now come with me and live his intolerable life, confined like a criminal because someone says, "He is insane."

We Who Are About to Die; Prison as Seen By a Condemned ManDavid Lamson was not the usual sort of resident of San Quentin Prison's death row. He was college educated and from a middle-class family. His sister was a prominent physician in Palo Alto, California. He had lived on the Stanford University campus, played regular bridge with members of the Hoover family, and been employed as sales manager for the Stanford University Press. Then he has discovered the gory body of his wife Allene, the back of her head smashed, in the bathroom of their small house on Salvaterra Street on Memorial Day 1933. Lamson became the only suspect of the Santa Clara Country Police. He was tried and convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death by hanging at San Quentin.
When the verdict on Lamson was overturned by the California Supreme Court some thirteen month later, he was released and never retried for his wife's death, which Lamson had maintained all along had been either accidental, caused by a fall in the tub, or else the work of a prowler. Free of his confinement in prison, Lamson was uneployed and the father of a two-year-old daughter. During the next couple of years he wrote and published We Who Are About to Die, a memoir of simplicity and orginalty about his time on death row which remains one of the strongest first-person prison books I have ever read. Richard Elman.

Portrait of a Bad Man: The Life and Death of Donald ChesneyTHIS Is the story of Ronald Chesney, international smuggler and murderer, whose sinister tentacles stretched from Britain right across Europe to Tangier, Algiers and the Middle East. The author, was one of the first on the scene at Ealing when the Chesney murders were discovered and he followed the Chesney trail right through Europe to Tangier and Casablanca. He met Chesney's associates and his women friends. He talked to detectives who had tried for years to trap Chesney and obtained a mass of information hitherto unknown.
Smuggling, blackmail and murder came easily to Chesney whose powerful personality, surface charm and daring exploits made him a legend in his lifetime.
When the Scotland Yard Murder Squad began to close in, Chesney shot himself—but the story does not end there. His death left the underworld worried and fear touched many whose lives had crossed that of this larger-than-life adventurer. Fiction holds nothing stranger than this—the fantastic career of a modern buccaneer.

As Though Before A Vengeful God: A Horror annotation/number of pages/publisher - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09...B095MMM7C6
Snowbound StudsIn our ever-changing and often-confusing world, a world in which it is often difficult to determine right from wrong or good from bad, things which may have shocked our grandparents, or even our parents, are often taken with a grain of salt.
Just a few short years ago, it seemed that the stereotype homosexual had firmly entrenched itself in the general consciousness of our society. It would have been looked upon as absurd, for example, for one to suggest that a certain professional football player was gay. After all, everyone knew that homosexuals were nonviolent at best, and downright weak-kneed at worst. It also went without saying that there were no homosexual doctors, lawyers, politicians or policemen. There were, however, numerous gay hair dressers, interior decorators and fashion designers. And, of course, most artists were suspect.
SNOWBOUND STUDS is a story that "tells it like it is" in that it exposes the old gay stereotype for what it is -- a lie. A compelling novel that attempts to uncover the truth in an area where the facts have been ignored too long.
