I enjoy everything prison related. Not sure why, but I have a total fascination with the world of incarceration. This book was one of many that I enjoyed. Written in a simple and easy to read format it is a book that you can read in a day or two and not miss a beat.

There is some good advice in this book, but it is really only for men who face incarceration. There is a scant chapter devoted to women, which in my experience offers little useful info.
Of course, if one is facing incarceration, any good advice is very slightly comforting.
