Convict Life

By A Ticket-of-Leave Man.

Or Revelations Concerning Convicts and Convict Prisons, by A Ticket-of-Leave Man. “It is hoped that these pages may be read with interest, not only as a truthful record of Convict Life, but also as a contribution towards Convict-Prison Reform. The writer has at least one qualification entitling him to express an opinion on this important subject: he writes — alas! — from personal experience. Many names which would have added confirmation to the facts recited, have for obvious reasons been omitted. “

London: Wyman & Sons, 1879. 252p.
