Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Mark on right foredge. Interior and binding are still very good. A few books have been written on the subject of Brisbane's Maximum Security Prison, or its favoured name, Boggo Road Prison, but none have been written at ground level, allowing the reader to gain an understanding of life inside the walls for Prison Officers. This book is based on the author's reflections of events as they happened or as recorded in journals, correspondence, interviews and newspaper cuttings. "When I first walked into Boggo Road, I knew this was it, the place to be, and as time went on we moved from one riot to another and eventually all turned to ruin. The book title Boggo Road Prison Riots to Ruins is based on my experience of the riots and is two-fold in the ruin, one its physical ruin and the other is the ruin of Queensland's Penal System." Chapters include: Historically convict Induction, training and sport Experience, camaraderie and service Leadership, precedence and rehabilitation All that was - with poetry Riots, disturbances and searches Deaths, mutilations and executions (prisoners) Escapes, shootings and workshops Transport, escorting and handcuffs Community Liaison and retired officers Courts, watchhouses and redundances Prison dog squads Woodford Prison Armourers, rangers and pistol clubs Decommissioning and retirement Prison medal awards and recipients Also includes lists of officers, photographs and maps.
