Prisons and Prisoners: Some Personal Experiences (1914)

Prisons and Prisoners: Some Personal Experiences is a book written by Constance Lytton and published in 1914. In this book, Lytton shares her personal experiences of being imprisoned in various jails in England, including Holloway Prison and Walton Gaol. She was arrested and imprisoned for her involvement in the suffragette movement, which fought for women's right to vote in the early 20th century. Lytton's book provides a vivid and detailed account of life inside the prison walls, including the harsh living conditions, the treatment of prisoners, and the psychological effects of incarceration. She also discusses the struggles faced by female prisoners, particularly those who were political activists, and the ways in which they were mistreated and abused by the authorities. Prisons and Prisoners: Some Personal Experiences is a powerful and important work that sheds light on the injustices of the prison system and the struggles faced by women in the fight for equality. It remains a valuable resource for those interested in the history of women's rights and the suffragette movement, as well as for those concerned with the ongoing issues of incarceration and social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
