Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. 196pp. Light brown cloth, black lettering on the spine. Except for toning to the page extremities, this is an unread, fine copy. Black and white photographs throughout. Unclipped pictorial jacket is like new in mylar sleeve. "Journalists John McCoy and Ethan Hoffman spent four months inside the walls of the Washington State Penitentiary at Walla Walla in 1978, just as Washington, once a leader in prison reform, abandoned its focus on reform and rehabilitation and returned to cell time and punishment. It was a brutal transition. McCoy and Hoffman roamed the maximum-security compound almost at will, observing and befriending prisoners and guards. The result is a striking depiction of a community in which there was little to do, much to fear, and a culture that both mimicked and scorned the outside world. McCoy s unadorned prose and Hoffman s stunning black-and-white photographs offer as authentic a portrayal of life in the Big House as outsiders are ever likely to experience. Size: Oblong 10 3/4" x 8 3/4".

First Edition
First Edition. Oblong Quarto. 196p. Photographs By Ethan Hoffman; Foreword By Tom Wicker. One of the seminal works on life inside a prison where the photographer Ethan Hoffman and the writer John McCoy were allowed to live for four months inside Walla Walla prison. The Washington State Penitentiary had pioneered reforms to allow prisoners some training and help for their eventual release outside. They had access to maximum security, were present at prison disturbances, and dealt with the snitch as well as the prisoner type who not only preyed on those outside the prison but their fellow prisoners. For some this has become a disturbing view of those in prison, others have concluded this is one of the most authoritative works for those who consider the life of those in the American prison. A fine copy without the wear that is common in most copies. Bound in light brown cloth, spine lettering black with silver rules. A near fine copy in near fine pictorial dust jacket.
