Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Buried Alive Behind Prison Walls is a forceful prison narrative that renders incarceration as a form of social death, a literal and moral burial of the living. Written in the plain yet impassioned idiom of testimony, the book combines autobiography, exposé, and reform literature. Its title captures the central argument: that the prison system, rather than merely punishing crime, can extinguish dignity, conscience, and hope. In the broader context of nineteenth-century penal writing, it belongs to a tradition that sought to awaken public sympathy through firsthand witness. Thomas S. Gaines wrote from intimate knowledge of confinement, and the authority of the work rests less on ornament than on experience. His perspective reflects the era's growing debate over punishment, rehabilitation, and institutional cruelty. Gaines appears not simply as a sufferer but as an observer of prison discipline, hierarchy, deprivation, and the psychological consequences of isolation, using his own story to indict a system hidden from ordinary civic scrutiny. This book is recommended to readers interested in prison history, reform movements, autobiographical testimony, and the literature of social conscience. It remains valuable as a human document and as a challenge to any society that confuses retribution with justice. 132 pp. Englisch.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In presenting this volume to to the public I do not intend that the convict shall pose as a martyr. And as sensationalism is almost invariably incompatible with the truth, I shall also avoid that. Far more eloquent pens than mine have exhausted the subject of contract labor, showing the world the injurious effects it had on the workingman. It is now my aim to show the misery it causes to his more unfortunate brother on the inside of the walls. I make no comments, I merely portray the facts. I am the artist. You, reader, are the critic. But in sending forth this little book, should it gain the attention of some of our public benefactors, and through them be the means of bettering the condition of those bound to these modern despots, I shall feel that I have not written in vain.
