Why read it?

1 author picked Beyond Bars as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is one of the most compassionate, no-nonsense, and highly informative books about the system out there.

It’s intended as a helpful guide for people who are about to leave prison, but if you’re on the outside and curious about the largely hidden, unconsidered, and technical aspects of incarceration in the USA, this book, like its earlier companion, Behind Bars, will blow your mind and maybe save your life, especially if you’re involved in the system.
