The Review, Vol. 1, No. 12, December, 1911

"The Review, Vol. 1, No. 12, December, 1911" by Various is a periodical of the early 20th century focusing on the need to improve prisons, how prisoners worked, and how people in general felt about those in prison. This book likely talks about the views of workers' unions on work done by those in prison, stories of prison policy changes, and what homelessness had to do with crime. The book has articles discussing fair and kind treatment, suggesting prisoners should have the opportunity to work in ways that help them get better rather than being used just to make money for others. Moreover, it looks into how other countries deal with the issues of vagrants and what that means for America's way of dealing with its prison population, pressing for changes in American prisons focusing on helping prisoners get back on their feet and having fair work policies. Altogether, this volume sheds light on the conversations and arguments about fixing prisons during its time of print.
