Title: Fascinating account of "The Rock's" history!
Review: This book has amazing details about the history of Alcatraz! I especially enjoyed learning about the Northwestern Pacific trains on barges that brought prisoners to the island and the role that Alcatraz played in the harbor defense fortifications from the Civil War through World War II. Too many people only think of Alcatraz as a home of Al Capone and other lesser cons when the island has a much more important history. Another well documented history lesson!Robert R.
