prisons that have been recorded throughout world history – from Alcatraz to Van Dieman’s land and from the Siberian gulags to the massive super jails of modern America. This book throws light on the lives of the inmates, the staff, the political regimes and the rise and fall of the empires involved in these stories. A Copper at the Yard – inside the real Sweeney: This book is an insight into the life of an ordinary guy who has led an extraordinary life - who has opened death’s door and closed it again, but still made time to smile at life as he endured the battle with a serious illness. This is the story of John Woodhouse’s fight back to health and his return to duty at the yard - combating the likes of the Chinese Triads in their back yard. This book is not only about guts and determination it is also about the humerous side of life as it will certainly make you laugh at times.
