Product Description

Step inside the walls of one of the largest correctional facilities in the United States and the madness experienced by not only the inmates but also the men and women who are charged with guarding them. This book details the career of a former Marine and U.S. Army National Guardsman who devoted his entire career to protecting society from murderers and rapists, drunks and drug addicts. The stories told in this book are true, and the author makes no apologies for the language and the violence that occurred inside the living, breathing demon known as a jail. Come inside, if you dare!

5.0 out of 5 stars A trip into a living hell!, July 16, 2005

By	M. Penny (Chattanooga, Tennessee) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After reading this book, I began to wonder how someone could spend so many years working in a jail and not lose their mind. In my nearly 14 years as a police officer I have arrested hundreds of people and had to deal with their antics for maybe a couple of hours at a time, so I cannot fathom working inside a jail and dealing with it for 8, 10 or 12 hours a day. It truly takes a special person to be able to put up with the violence and insanity inside a jail or prison, and my hat goes off to those men and women who are able to do it, day in and day out. If you have ever wondered what it is like to spend time in jail, then you MUST read this book!

AWESOME, eye-opener. Never gave jail a thought, it was a place to lock up the bad guys. You feel you are right there and you have insight of what goes on IN THE CELL.Humorous too. Great book and I am looking forward to his NEXT book!

Jail is no fun place to be. but you have to give respect to those willing to protect us from the bad guy's being a former jail deputy i can say that this book is dead on the money. the author did a excellent job.
