Prison Labor

Prison Labor: In What Kinds Of Work Should Prisoners Be Employed, And What Inducement Should Be Offered Them For Steady Industry? is a book written by Frederic Hill in 1872. The book discusses the issue of prison labor and the types of work prisoners should be employed in, as well as the incentives that should be offered to encourage steady industry. Hill argues that prisoners should be employed in productive work that benefits society and helps to rehabilitate them, rather than being used for cheap labor. He also suggests that prisoners should be given incentives such as reduced sentences or increased privileges for good behavior and steady work. The book provides a historical perspective on the use of prison labor and offers insights into the debates surrounding this issue in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
