Pulitzer Prize winner Stewart interviews many people to learn more about the man, how he was able to continue his reign of terror, and how he was finally stopped--temporarily. The author also talks with others within the medical field about the mind of the doctor and about ways the profession can work to stop people like him from practicing medicine. At times fascinating and at times downright scary, this book will find a home in most…

Description:
Fort Bragg, CA, U.S.A.: Q E D Press, 1994. Trade Paperback. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Winner of the Western States Book Award. A vivid account of life behind bars, the prisoners and those who guard them, this collection of impressions, some as brief as a sentence, is searing. Washington was imprisoned-we're not told why-from 1972 to 1989, part of that time at Attica, New York's maximum-security prison, and met con artists, sex addicts, psychotics and dreamers. There are Jomo, who taught him how to escape without leaving the walls; Little Black, who turned a can of tuna into a banquet; and Julio, who smiled as a gang of guards beat him to death. Washington sees most of the warders as small-souled and brutal, yet as much imprisoned as those they guard. On his release, he finds the outside world paranoid, populated by prisoners of their own desperation. - Publishers Weekly. 166 pages..
