Title: Really nice work
Review: Alcatraz is 9,740 locations on the Kindle, with a ton of photographs and documents. If you want to learn about Alcatraz itself, life on the island (who knew kids lived there...) or the inmates, this is a great choice. I'm not going to make any judgments about how the prisoners were treated as I wasn't there, but I know just being there would have been torture to me. Even being unable to talk at the start of the prison would do the trick for me. Let alone a freezing cell with no light and no mattress. I can understand why they closed the prison, as expensive as it was to maintain.The stories of the escape attempts are fascinating, and the "Battle of Alcatraz" is just tragic.I was fortunate enough to get this while free, but very much worth paying for.
