Originally published in 1968, English Prisons Under Local
Government gives a detailed account of the evolution of the English
Prison System from the common gaol and the house of correction of
the sixteenth century down to the statutory changes of the
twentieth century, and survey the successive efforts at reform of
John Howard and Elizabeth Fry, Jeremy Bentham and James Neild, Sir
T. Fowell Buxton and J. J.Gurney. The origin and development of the
cellular system, the treadwheel and the crank, the penal dietary
and the 'system of progressive stages' all come under review,
together with the administrative changes made by Sir Edmund Du Cane
and Sir Evelyn Ruggles, and the reforms during the first part of
the 20th century.
