Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. SIGNED BY JOLENE BABYAK on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; some creasing at upper inside edge of front cover; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; June 11, 1962 - After months of digging through concrete, stealing supplies to make life vests and a raft, four convicts placed dummy maskes in their beds and broke "the Rock." Three of them were never seen again. Alcatraz was the most maximum security prison in the U.S. and this was its most stunning escape attempt. How did they do it? Who helped them? Did they make it? Jolene Babyak's father was the acting warden. She was at home on Alcatraz when the first call announcing the escape came from the prison. Now, using eyewitness interviews, FBI documents and crime scene analysis - she exposes the searing story of how the most famous escape attempt in U.S. history caused the prison to be abandoned nine months later.

SIGNED by the author. 8vo. 248 pp. Blue and grey cloth covered boards in publisher's illustrated dustjacket. Age toning around page edges else fine in near fine dustjacket. Based on the true story of Frank Lee Morris, whose escape from the "impregnable" Rock in 1962 made world headlines. The escape, plus Alcatraz's bad reputation, helped it close less than a year later. The book was made into a film starring Clint Eastwood as Morris, and Patrick McGoohan as the cruel warden. The movie gives a good idea of the horrors of prison life, and particularly the horrors of Alcatraz.
