Between the years of 1820 and 1913, penitentiaries and
reformatories came to be in the states of Pennsylvania, New York,
and Massachusetts. The rise of these institutions is not simply a
result of historical and theological trends, but was directly
influenced by the American religious community. Drawing on various
primary source materials, the author evaluates the influence of the
religious community on the American penal system, with specific
emphasis on the role of prison chaplains.
